Abstract: A hanger plate for interconnecting an upper segmented wall of a swimming pool to a vertical support. The swimming pool includes a floor and a plurality of walls formed by an excavation in the earth. A plurality of wall panels are interconnected end-to-end and located about the top of the excavation. Adjacent each joint of the segmented wall is one vertical support. Each vertical support is located to the exterior of the excavation and secured in the earth. A hanger plate having at least two rows of holes interconnects the vertical support and segmented wall. A first row of holes are elongated in a first direction while the second row of holes are elongated in a direction at a right angle to the first. The elongated holes provide for adjustments vertically and horizontally. The segmented wall is capped by an extruded coping which retains the upper edge of a vinyl liner fitted to the walls and floor of the pool.
