SU155(26) Wales National Pool Swansea, Moveable Floor Works

The refurbishment works will address the full operational integrity, safety, and performance of the 50-metre moveable floor system. The scope includes structural, mechanical, and alignment improvements to ensure the floor operates reliably and meets contemporary standards for levelness, stability, and user safety.

A comprehensive inspection of the 50-metre moveable floor will be undertaken while the pool is fully drained. This allows unrestricted access to all structural, mechanical, and safety-critical components, enabling a detailed assessment of the system’s condition and identification of any additional faults or refurbishment needs.

The works involve the full replacement of the stainless-steel lifting and support cables associated with the moveable floor system. This refurbishment is essential to maintain structural integrity, ensure reliable floor movement, and reduce the risk of mechanical failure.

The works involve the removal and replacement of the perimeter gasket that provides the watertight seal between the moveable floor and the pool tank structure. This refurbishment is essential to maintain safe operation, prevent entrapment risks, and ensure the floor performs correctly across its full range of movement.

Provide and install a new digital depth display system serving the 50 m pool and integrated moveable floor. The system shall provide real-time depth information to pool users and operational staff and also when diving and no diving is appropriate.

A full clean of the 50-metre moveable floor will be undertaken to remove accumulated debris, biofilm, scale, and contaminants from all accessible surfaces and mechanical components. Cleaning is carried out while the pool is empty to ensure safe access and thorough coverage. The specification covers the design, preparation, relining, and reinstatement of concrete deck-level channels serving a commercial swimming pool.
