Ready-Mix Concrete Provides Reliable Performance for Swimming Pools
Swimming pools and aquatic centers present a variety of design challenges. Pool decks must withstand heavy wear and high moisture levels. Pool shells must be durable and waterproof. Outdoor pools are exposed to inclement weather year round and must be able to endure freeze/thaw cycles.
Ready-mix concrete is well suited to both indoor and outdoor swimming pool applications. County Ready Mix has supplied concrete for many swimming pool projects throughout North Central Wisconsin.
Design Flexibility for Indoor Aquatic Center
The South Wood County YMCA is home to several organizations, including the Boys & Girls Club of the Wisconsin Rapids Area and the Wisconsin Rapids VA Clinic. The expansive project required durable, versatile building materials to fulfill a variety of demands.
Ready-mix concrete was used for the aquatic center’s two multi-purpose pools and hot tub. Concrete was specified for its superior design flexibility and durability. The aquatic center’s design was brought to life using hand-formed radiuses and shotcrete integrated with Xypex for waterproofing. Shotcrete forms dense surfaces with low porosity and permeability, providing resistance to heavy wear and water over an extended service life
Lasting Performance for Aquatic Therapy Center
Ready-mix concrete was specified for several design and structural elements in an aquatic therapy center at the main campus of North Central Health Care in Wausau, Wisconsin. Project leaders chose ready-mix for the pool deck and pool shell to ensure its lasting performance.
Durability and Structural Integrity for Community Pool
As the Wisconsin Rapids Aquatics Center was being built, project leaders turned to concrete masonry and ready-mix to construct a shelter, a lazy river, three pool shells, and the mechanical rooms and water tanks necessary to operate the center. Concrete construction products manufactured by County Ready Mix were specified for their ability to maintain structural integrity and durability in an outdoor water park application, where they would be exposed to high-moisture levels and inclement weather conditions.
