Pool Design
Although most pool accidents are a result of poor supervision or reckless participant behavior, they can also be caused by a pool’s poor design plan. There are very strict regulations and rules for pool owners. All safety precautions must be considered.
Do you have a Pool Liability lawsuit?
All swimming pools must be compliant with the local building code requirements. Just as there is a building code for homes, garages, and other structures, there is a building code for swimming pools. If you already have a pool, it is important to make sure your pool is up to code. If you are considering putting a new pool in your yard, make sure you do your research. Also make sure that your contractors are licensed and have extensive knowledge of all swimming pool building codes.

A major standard in swimming pool building code is the slope of the pool from the shallow and to the deep end. There are strict standards on how steep the slope can be. The steeper the slope, the greater risk for a in-pool slip & fall.
All walking surfaces surrounding the pool area must be slip resistant. If they are not, proper and obvious signage should be present to warn against any possible dangers of slipping. Regardless of any safety precautions, one should never run or play around a pool area.
Proper signage should be present to notify all participants of the pool depth. If pool depth is not noted, severe head and neck injury could result.
