  • Build your own pool – Masonry walls with reinforcement | Set formwork stones

    Partially constructed cinder block walls on a wet concrete floor, with stacked bricks and construction materials, including pipes and cables, suggest preparations to build a pool. The area appears to be under construction. www.commaik.de

    The plans for the construction of our new pool in the garden were finalized and the construction of the pool could continue with the masonry of the pool walls. This step was not particularly complicated, but it was much more time-consuming to implement. This time the pool was built from solid stones. Of course, these had to be carried to the construction site first. Of course, the formwork blocks also had to be cut and adjusted before installation. In the following article, I describe how we implemented all of this to build our new pool in the garden.

  • Plan your own pool and create a 3D floor plan

    3D floor plan of a rectangular room with grey walls, labeled dimensions, a curved front wall, built-in shelves on the left, and a person standing outside for scale. The approximately 6x4 meter room could easily fit a small indoor pool. www.commaik.de

    The layout for our new pool was partially predetermined by the retaining walls of the old oval steel wall pool. However, some adjustments were still possible and also necessary. The new pool in our garden was definitely going to have steps and a seating platform in the water was also planned. The old excavation pit offered several possibilities – but none for a classic rectangular pool. The demolition of the old pool landscape was completed and it was now time for me to make some thoughts and plans for the new concrete pool. How could I get the best out of these specifications? And what tools could I use to…
