SWIMMING POOL PROJECT LAYOUT, DIMENSION AND DEPTH
Pool shape options are as follows:
• simple: rectangular, square, oval or round
• complex shaped (freeform, kidney shaped, grecian, etc.)
For swimming purposes, the minimum depth for swimming is 1.20 meters.
If, in addition to swimming, there is also a trampoline one-meter high in relation to
the water surface, a depth of 2.5 meters is recommended.
If the trampoline exceeds one meter in height up to two meters or three, a
minimum depth of 3 meters is recommended.

WATER DEPTH OPTIONS
Generally, we could refer to four shapes of water depth: :
1. flat: same depth at both ends of the swimming pool
2. sloped: the bottom is first sloping and then creates a sinking with the shape of a
spoon, so as to ensure maximum depth in the diving area
3. spooned: the bottom is first sloping and then creates a sinking with the shape of
a spoon, so as to ensure maximum depth in the diving area
4. U-shaped: the deepest part is at the center of the pool.
