  • Patent number: 9551123
    Abstract: A basin for swimming pools, artificial ponds and the like, includes, within the bed excavated in the ground for its provision, a layer for protecting the internal surface of the bed, a first waterproofing layer, above the protective layer, an internally hollow structure, which is placed on the first waterproofing layer and whose inner face, directed toward the inside of the basin, is contoured or vertical, in order to provide a correspondingly shaped or substantially vertical wall of the central tank of the basin, a protective layer and a waterproofing layer for the outer face of the hollow structure, and a second waterproofing layer for the inner face of the hollow structure.

  • Patent number: 8544220
    Abstract: A procedure for making swimming pools and artificial lakes in general includes the following steps: excavation of a tank; preparation of a subgrade by spreading the bottom of the excavation with a layer of sand; then spreading one or more sheets of nonwoven fabric on the inside surface of the excavation, over the layer of the subgrade; placement of a waterproofing layer over the sheet(s) of nonwoven fabric; installation of the equipment needed for proper functioning of the tank, swimming pool, etc; and application of a coating on the inside walls and/or on the bottom and/or around the edge of the tank, with holes or interstitial spaces such to enable water contained inside the tank to come into contact with the sheets, wherein the thrust of the water contained in the tank thus comes to bear on the sheets.
