 PREPARATION

Mark out the Area

a)

 The next following steps will show you how to mark out the 

area you need for the oval pool. This marked area will be larger 
than the pool size itself, but this space is needed. Find a site 
where the ground is stable, level and well drained. Once you 
have selected your site, determine where the middle of your 
pool will be.

b)

  Drive a peg into the ground at the centre point. 

(Image 2.4) 

c)  

Now you must make the round ends that will be the oval 

part. In order to do so, you will have to determine the center 
of the radius on each side and drive a peg into the ground. 

(Image 2.5)

d) 

Using a length of string tied between the peg and a can of 

spray paint mark the circles on the ground. 

(Image 2.6)

e) 

Once the center has been established, and the measurement 

of the pool itself has been determinded, you must now deter-
mine the outer limits of the perimeter of your pool. Add 12” 
(30 cm) outside this measurement to determine pool perimeter.
