A Herbert G. Allphin. SUGGESTIONS FOR A NEW SWIMMING POOL AT KANSAS UNIVERSITY BY HERBERT G,. ALLPHIN I, Size and Type of Swimming Pool 1. Rectangular = 42" x 75* or 35° by 75°, This would be for either five or six contestants, A lane of water 7* wide is recommended for each contestant in com- petitive swimming, 2. Type - Class instruction, Swimming Contests and Diving, and recreational swimming, 3. Codes and regulations ( Refer to State Sind tae Engineer) II. Diving and Recreational Equipment i. Tee €2) ons meter diving boards (optional = one (1) three meter board) Unable to have 3 meter board with present ceiling, 2. Recreation apparatus - Water basketball, water polo, flutter boards, sun lamps, diving bricks of rubber- weight 10 pounds, ITI. Provisions for Spectators ss Provide permanent bleachers on a floor separated from poogl room, Permanent bleachers or terraces with impervious floors and solid parapet walls at least 4 feet high dividing them from the pool area and having separate drainage and cleaning connections, For sanitary reasons, portable bleachers should never be placed on pool runways, page 2- New Swimming Pool TV. Construction 1, Rewinforced concrete Pool to rest directly on earth constructed of reinforced concrete built either directly in excavation or free standing with open space around and underneath, 2. Steel Pool 3. Gutters (1. wall or deep type (2. broad or roll-out type- Oklahoma University Recommend the roll-out type. 4. Decks and Runways i, (2, (3, (4. (5. Use faience or ceramic tile decks and runways- white or cream colors, Tile of contrasting colors are used to mark distance from the deep end every five feet with small numerals and the inter- vening feet are shown by short vertical marks, The depth in feet is shown at various points, At diving end of pool room floor, JAYHAWKER BIRD in Crimson and Blue, also letters K, U or Kansas University. Swimming/lanes marked on bottom of the pool by 3" wide longitudinal lines located under the center of each 5° to 7' wide lane in CRIMSON AND BLUE, These lines should have a plainly marked termination 4' from each end of the pool as a turning signal, The “jack-knife" limit" should also be marked by 3" wide vertical lines above the water on opposite sides of the pool, located 6° outside of the end of the springboard, This is a marker for divers, as each diver should enter water 6" from end of board, A band of non-slip tile across each end of the pool about 2" down from the water line, will help racers in turning, page 3- New Swimming Pool V. Ladders 1. Recessed ladder of glazed terra cotta blocks, Railing at top, this will not interfere with swimmers, VI. Pool Room 1. Ze 36 At least 22° high, (This depends on the location of pool,) Ample day light and sunlight, Proper - acoustics, In- stall public address system for instructor to teach classes as well as to announce speed contests and acquatic festivals, Face the walls to a height of 5' or 6" with tile like that used on the runways or with glazed or vitreous prick (white biscuit tile will craze and white ceramic tile may discolor from body contacts), Above that level, hard faced brick, glazed or acoustic tile, cinder block and Haydite block have all been used, For the ceiling Guastavino acoustic tile is probably the best but rather expensive, Avoid wood trim of all kinds in pool room, Few wood doors withstand the warm humid conditions, Metal doors preferably of the flush or unpannelled type are more permanent, Air temperature of indoor pool rooms should be about 73 degrees to 75 degrees F, dry bulb and the water temperature 68 to 70 degrees F, Water should be warmer for teaching purposes, Can heat water to suit the needs, page 4- New Swimming Pool VI. Con't,.Pool Room 8, Radiators and fittings should be of brass and 10. ducts and ventilating apparatus exposed to warm moist air should be of non-corrosive metal corkboard, Transite or similar material, Poolelighting The pool room should be evenly lighted to an intensity of about 15 to 20 lumens at the water surface, Closed fixtures, preferably of vapor- proof type, should be used to minimize conden- sation and unites recessed flush with the ceiling and louvred to control lateral spill light and glare, Submarine lighting= Highly decorative value, when colored lenses used, and increases safety by making underwater objects clearly visible, Lights installed “in the dry" behind a heavy sheet of glass set in a metal frame permanently built into the pool wall and must be serviced from a pipe tunnel or other space around the pool, The units are about 2 to 24 feet below the water level, possibly lower, Perhaps Neon tubes- Crimson and blue, If properly installed there is no question of safety. VII. Dressing, toilet and shower rooms will depend on the direction the pool room is placed, The only route from dressing room to pool should be past the toilet to a shower room where a thorough page 5- New Swimming Pool VII, Con‘t - Dressing, etc, bath in the nude, with soap and hot water, is required and enforced, and thence through a disinfecting foot bath to the pool area, Toilets should be immediately accessible from both dressing rooms and pool, but only from the pool through the dis- infecting foot baths, Shower, dressing and toilet room,floors, walls, ceilings and fittings should have only non-absorbtive and easily cleanable materials, Glass or glazed brick are frequently used, Floors should be reasonably non-slip and definitely sloped to wenerées floor drains, which should be located s0 as to keep the most frequented parts of the floor as dry as possible, Frequent hose outlets, preferably for hot water are a necessity for proper cleaning, Cement, marble and tile are the most usual floor materials; asphalt has been used, Straddle showers, frequently installed, furnish no additional sanitary protection unless used in the nudes; for that matter neither does any shower, Whether liquid soap or soap chip dispensers are used, or individual cakes of soap furnished is a matter of choice, ° Drinking fountains are often required by regulations but are little used in the pool area, In dressing rooms they are very convenient, page 6- New Swimming Pool VIII. Pool Water Supply 1. Quality of Supply The bacterial, chemical and physical purity of swimming pool water should be fully equal to the best drinking water, If the water is very hard, that is if it contains large quantities of calcium bicarbonate, ordinary coagulation and filtration may not give clear water, expecially if the water is heated, In such a case coagulation and sedimentation basin may be installed for pre- | treatment or a water softening apparatus, mon be used. 2. Water Purity standards (1-Whatever the source, the water in every swimming _ pool should at all times, as a minimum meet the standards of the American Public Health Association, (See K, BU. Sanitation Dept.) (2-Maintenance of Water standards (Consult K, U. San- itation Dept.) (3=
