Sets out requirements for premoulded plastic swimming pools exceeding 7500L in volume and 750mm in depth, constructed from fibre-reinforced plastics based on thermosetting resin systems. Minimum design soil loads are given for the design of the pool. In-service performance requirements for service degradation are set out and a water resistance test is described using a temperature of 80 degrees Celsius.

This Standard specifies requirements for premoulded plastic swimming pools exceeding 7500 L in volume and 750 mm in depth, and constructed from fibre-reinforced plastics (FRP) based on thermosetting resin systems. It covers materials, design and performance requirements.NOTE: For installation of swimming pools complying with this Standard, see AS/NZS 1839.
