Advice on diving pool slope/volleyball area

8 years ago

Sorry I can't get the pic to turn but can you help me with this slope? I'd like to add 6" to the depth on both ends of the pool, making it a 4' - 9' deep pool, 15' x 50' with a 6' tanning shelf. I want the diving area to be as safe as possible, but was wondering if I could safely get more flat area on the shallow end? Would love to be able to play volleyball, but diving area is the priority. Also, any advice on any other areas of concern you see would be greatly appreciated, I know nothing about pool builds.PB is coming tonight so any quick answers would be awesome. Thank you!!
