Kit including prefabricated components for erecting a prefabricated water containment structure. The kit includes all parts necessary for erecting a prefabricated water feature or containment enclosure. The kit includes a prefabricated three-inch structural steel channel of various lengths, steel support struts, corner sections, steel corner support gussets, a centre steel support band, eight steel attachment plates, four airplane cord channel joining devices, concrete board inner and outer wall panels, containing all the necessary cut-outs to accommodate prefabricated plumbing and electrical assemblies. The kit further includes rivets, stainless steel bolts, lock washers and nuts. The kit includes a prefabricated submersible hollow concrete water pump pedestal for water containment structures. The kit also includes all the required piping and wiring needed to connect plumbing and electrical assemblies to external sources. The kit helps homeowners, residential and commercial builders, landscape architects for constructing a water feature, fountain base, or water reservoir.

The present invention is directed to below grade fluid containment structures, which may include a foam floor and a foam wall extending upward from the floor, the foam wall being formed from foam panels and optionally a plurality of metal splines. A foam buttress is provided as part of or adjacent to the foam wall, for reducing pressure against an exterior face of the foam wall that would otherwise be exerted by the soil, in the absence of the foam buttress, which places a top portion of the soil at an angle of repose, to minimize inward pressure. A concrete footing can be provided below the foam wall, where the splines of the wall are vertically oriented in the foam wall, with a bottom of the splines anchored into the concrete footing. The interior surface of the pool or other structure can be coated with any desired finish coating.

A modular swimming pool includes a precast base unit and a precast riser unit that can be assembled at an installation site to define an interior volume in which a human can swim. The precast riser unit is secured to the base unit. The upper surface of the precast base unit and at least one internal surface of the precast riser unit define the interior volume of the modular pool when the precast base unit and the precast riser unit are secured together. A modular swimming pool assembly is also provided. A method of assembling a modular swimming pool is also provided.

A pool, preferably a plunge pool, that can be prefabricated and on site installed in a short space of time is provided. The pool is integrally formed, resulting in a unitary pool shell having a floor, one or more sidewalls connected to the floor, a surface, such as a step or bench, extending from at least one of the sidewalls; and a peripheral wall extending from the surface to the floor.

A prefabricated concrete pool including concrete walls and a pan-formed concrete floor, as well as a method of fabricating a prefabricated swimming pool, the method including erecting an external wall form, erecting an internal wall form opposing the external wall form, and positioning pan forms on a floor form.
