Description

Modular Container Assembly for a Pool and Method of Construction
The invention relates to a modular container assembly for a pool for use in residential, industrial, schools and commercial situations and to a method of construction. The invention 5 is directed particularly but not solely towards a modular support assembly for a pool which is especially useful for tight spatial requirements that may or may not have an internal stairway. The word ‘container’ is not being used in connection to transport or shipping containers but is merely a descriptive word to describe a shape that is able to contain a pool liner and/or water.
Background of Invention
Existing pools are constructed by specialists which require extensive excavations and construction expertise and also requiring special design to meet strength requirements in terms 15 of soil and seismic load requirements as a well meeting drainage and safety requirements.
Central government and local Government, also have regulatory requirements with appropriate official fees. Therefore existing pools are complicated to build taking a long time to receive regulatory approval and time to construct.
All of these factors combine to significantly increase the cost of installing such a pool.
Some premade pools exist but these can be still be expensive to construct or form.
In this specification unless the contrary is expressly stated, where a document, act or item of knowledge is referred to or discussed, this reference or discussion is not an admission that the document, act or item of knowledge or any combination thereof was at the priority date, publicly available, known to the public, part of common general knowledge; or known to be relevant to an attempt to solve any problem with which this specification is concerned.

G:\196742AU COMP SPEC HDec2018 850 MCG/«fi author»/
-102018282264 18 Dec 2018 purely to exemplify the invention only and that possible variations and modifications would be readily apparent without departing from the scope of the invention.
As shown in Figures 1-27 modular support assembly 1 for a pool 4 is shaped and designed to 5 hold and support at least one pool liner 2 to form a pool 4. The modular support assembly 1 is constructed and adapted to support a pool of water in the pool liner, to be located above or below ground 6 on a substrate 8. The substrate 8 can include any supporting structure or surface including a base structure comprising for example at least one compacted hard-fill or base-coarse 10 layer and/or concrete pad.
The pool 4 has sides 12 defining a width or transverse dimension 14 and ends 16 defining a length or longitudinal dimension 18 including a recess space 20 for the pool of water.
The modular support assembly 1 for a pool 4 includes the following components of a panel support structure 30, a frame support structure 32, which connected together can be mounted on the base structure to support a pool of water in the pool liner 2 therein to form the pool 4. The pool 4 and modular support assembly 1 have sides 22, ends 24 and base 26.
The panel support structure 30 includes interconnected modular wall structures 34 and connected floor structure 36 being operatively joined to each together to form an open top container having a recess 37 therein wherein the floor structure 36 includes a lower base frame 38 and upper planar panel member 40 to support the pool liner 2 there on.
There is an enclosed perimeter recessed space 42 between the pool liner 2 and panel support 25 structure 30 which is used to contain and confine or sandwich there between a suitable insulation material as used in the form of an insulation layer 44. The panel support structure 30 and frame support structure 32 are each shaped in overall shape in this example as being a rectangular structure to define a length or longitudinal dimension 46 between ends 48 and sides 50 between the ends 48 defining a width or transverse dimension 52.
The base structure 6 is a specially designed bedding material (eg base-course or hard-fill) having specific physical characteristics, a certain designed thickness 54 and outer surface 56,
G:\196742AU COMP SPEC HDec2018 850 MCG/«fi author»/
-11 2018282264 18 Dec 2018 supported underneath by the substrate 8. Substrate 8 can be formed as part of a ground or floor structure eg a concrete pad.
Pool liner 2 is formed as a water impermeable material being a planar member having a thickness 60, an inner surface 62 and outer surface 64 forming a recess 66 to be able to retain a fluid therein, with a length 68, width 70 and height 72. Height 72 is an effective height for the contained fluid ie water and the pool liner 2 extends above this height to include in one option an up and over curved top edge portion 72a to give a top edge height 72b. Insulation layer 44 is a layer of material of varying thickness 40, having an outer surface 42 and an inner surface 4 5.
The frame support structure 32 is connected and supported by and supports panel support structure 30 to provide support for any external structures.
The frame support structure 32 includes elongate members connected or joined together forming a horizontal frame and at least one transverse vertical frame. Each elongate member has is adapted to be able to be joined or connected together with each other and to the panel support structure 30 by suitable connection means 92 (eg welding or bolting), to provide structural support as a frame thereto.
The horizontal frame is formed and connected of transverse beams and longitudinal beams into a perimeter ring frame assembly 94 having a width 96, and length 98 extending around the top perimeter of the pool liner 2. The horizontal frame also has extra transverse beams located at one end to provide support for other structures.
The transverse vertical frames (see figures 2, 9, 14-17), comprise column members 80 and horizontal beam members 82 which are elongate members having any suitable cross section (eg RHS - Rectangular Hollow Section of 100x50x6mm section) defining a shape having a length, 84 between ends 86 and sides 88 defining a thickness 90. include further column 30 members 80 connected to horizontal members 82 as part of the extra transverse beams of the perimeter ring frame as shown in figure 9 by any suitable connection (eg welding or bolts) to form an overall shape or area similar to a transverse cross sectional area of the pool. In this example each wall frame can have a horizontal top rail 100 consisting of part of the
G:\196742AU COMP SPEC HDec2018 850 MCG/«fi author»/
- 122018282264 18 Dec 2018 perimeter ring assembly and at least one further horizontal middle rail 102 oriented parallel with the top rail member 100 and column members 80 with for example one column member 80 at each end or corner and middle column member 80 being parallel with each other column members 80.
The perimeter ring frame assembly 94 includes beam members 104 end connected to each other using any suitable connection (eg welding or bolting), to form a shape commiserate with the perimeter shape of the top of the pool liner 2 and the walls of the panel support structure 30.
The panel support structure 30 comprises the floor structure 36 and modular wall structures 34 forming the recessed space 37 there between for receipt of the pool liner 2.
Floor structure 36 is formed of a body with a planar lower floor frame structure 38 having an 15 inner floor surface 118 and outer floor surface 120 with edges 122. Floor structure 36 also has an upper floor panel structure 40 which has an upper surface 122 and lower surface 124 and edges 126. The floor structure 36 extends at least partially of the length 18 of the pool in that there does not need to be a floor structure underneath the area of the pool 4 covered by the deck 204.
Modular wall structures 34 includes a planar panel body structure having side and end walls 130 defining a thickness 132 there between an inner wall surface 134 and outer wall surface 136 with a top end edge 138 and lower end edge 140 defining a height 142.
For the frame support structure 32 if using more than one vertical transverse frame, there is also provided a space 200 located between the vertical frames and beyond the pool support structure 30. Space 200 can be located at one end of the pool or somewhere between the ends of the pool but beyond the pool liner 2.
Other components that can be held and supported in the space 200 beyond the container assembly 1 are a deck 204 stairs or steps 206, pool equipment 208, access way structures eg door(s) or gates 210, 212 and handrail structure 214 (eg wall support frame and infill panels).

The pool liner 2 can be sized to extend the complete part or only part way of the length 20 of the pool.
Deck 204 is applied to, connected and supported on a top of the extra transverses beams of the perimeter ring frame assembly. The stairs or steps 206 are also supported by the perimeter ring frame assembly and transverse vertical frames.
As shown in figures 23-27, the frame support structure 32 includes a side cradle frame220 located on the side 88 or length dimension of the pool 4, which is interconnected with the horizontal frame and the transverse frame whereby the side cradle frame 220 is interconnected by suitable fixing and/or fastening eg welding and bolting as located in the side space 42 between an outside of the pool liner 2 and inside the wall structures 34. The side cradle 220 can be fabricated out of steel. The side cradle frame 220 is included in all the sides including or excluding the ends of assembly as required.
The side cradle 220 comprises an overall frame shape forming incline sides extending furthermost at a bottom, which is made up of inclined vertical elongate members 222, substantially (or close to) horizontal strut members 224 and side rail members 226.
For example for a pool of say 1730mm high, 2300 wide and length of 6000mm, members
222, 224 can be box sections of 65x35x3 mm SHS welded together whereas members 226 can be box sections 100x100 bolted to the strut members 224 and welded to the members 222.
