Overview
We are pleased to submit this proposal to build a swimming pool to support Great Lakes in
providing an outstanding physical activities infrastructure for its students in order to make
sure that academic learning is complemented by adequate physical development. We have
built more than 70,000 pools in the last 30 years. Various clients have chosen us because of
features such as long-lasting finish, optimum performance, low maintenance, and corrosion
resistance.
Executive Summary
Unlike many animals that retain their innate ability to swim, we humans must learn to keep
our bodies afloat and move in water six months after birth. Swimming is more than a sport; it
is a life skill. According to studies, when we learn how to stay safe in the water, we build
confidence, learn new abilities, and make healthier life choices. Swimming is also a fantastic
low-strain workout. It benefits the heart, lungs, and muscles while putting little strain on the
joints. By adding a swimming pool into your infrastructure, you will be able to provide your
students with all of the benefits of swimming.
Once our swimming project is completed, it will be placed under the supervision of a capable
management team that will endeavor to achieve the project's aims and objectives.
INTRO
Physical education is a vital part of the school since it encourages students to participate in physical
activities and mental refreshments, which helps them study more successfully and focus on their
assigned curriculum and classroom tasks.
Primary fitness is becoming increasingly important and required in Indian colleges in efforts to
progress the public education system as a whole. These sports and games can help children improve
their self-esteem, athletic prowess, and mental abilities.
Swimming is a full-body workout that incorporates all of the physical activities of the human body
and internal organs. It promotes muscle development in all areas of the body as well as bone joint
articulation, resulting in more effective body movement, activity, and agility.
Swimming habits constructed as part of a structured initiative will improve students' patience and
stamina, muscular strength, and respiratory health. It can help reduce excess body fat while also
maintaining a healthy body weight. Swimming also allows one to relax and refresh the mind in order
to prepare the mind for doing more work without distractions and is also considered water therapy
for maintaining normal blood circulation. It can help you develop capabilities like self-discipline,
mental strength, time management, and the confidence to participate in school sports and
competitions.
As a result, every institution should construct a well-managed swimming pool to assist students with
sports and exercises to promote their physical and mental fitness. This gains even more relevance in
present times where most of the students are hooked to their computer screens to study as well as
spend free time. Their body agility and postures might a toll over the long run. Swimming is a sport
that is perceived to be fun and refreshing for the students and they often prefer it to conventional
fitness activities like running and gym, which tend to be more monotonous.
Ultimately a swimming pool will also serve as a training ground for potential athletes who take part
in swimming competitions, bringing about a shift in the culture of the campus as well.
Proposed solution:
The solution is to construct an open-air, in-ground concrete swimming pool on the empty land
behind the by 15th January 2023 with an estimated cost of approximately Rs. 25000000/-.
STEPS:
(a) Planning
Our engineers draw up the specifications for the pool.
(b) Certification
Once our plans have been returned from the Building Certifier and have been approved,
the construction of the swimming pool shall commence.
(c) Mark Out
The college admin and the Director of the construction company will then mark out the
pool to the desired shape.
(d) Excavation
The initial step in the construction process is excavation. The first stage is to 'peg out' the
pool's shape, ensuring that the dimensions and elevations are correct. The physical
excavation of the hole begins after this phase. Because this is a portion of the procedure
that requires accuracy and professionalism, it is critical that the excavation be conducted
by experienced excavators.
(e) Plumbing and Storm Water
It's not uncommon for home sewer and stormwater pipes to be diverted. During this time, all interior
plumbing work will be completed.
(f) Form Work and Steel
It is very important that all pools, maximize the internal dimensions of the swimming pool.
(g) Concrete Mould
Now that the steel is in place, the pool will be strengthened and the concrete will be held
in place. The concrete is sprayed on and must be 150 mm thick all around the pool.
(h) Curing Period
After concreting, the pool is left to 'cure' for four weeks.
(i) Coping and Waterline Tiling
Once the pool has cured, the finishes can be applied. The coping, waterline and step-edge
tiling is completed and finishing to the feature wall are applied.
(j) External Plumbing
All external plumbing work will then be traced back to your filtration location.
(k) Filtration
Filtration installation will then be undertaken.
(l) Fencing and Interior Lining
Pool fencing must be completed before starting to apply the pool's interior lining as the
pool needs to be filled with water very soon after the interior lining application has been
completed.
(m) Acid Wash
After the lining has been applied within 36 hours the lining is cleaned with a mild acid
solution prior to filling the swimming pool with water.
(n) Water
It is now possible to fill your pool with water which we then treat with start-up chemicals.
This will take a couple of days depending on the size of the swimming pool.
(o) Pool Finish
Once the water level reaches the skimmer boxes, the filtration can be turned on with the
water now filtered and sanitized giving the finished swimming pool.
Budget for the project
Initiation
The preparation of the area or the location will be the first step in the construction of the
swimming pool. With the tractors, all essential clearing of trees and impediments on site will
be completed, and the ground will be ready for excavation. A swimming pool with a depth of
5 metres must be sunk. The pool is expected to be 4 metres long at the deepest end and 2
metres long at the shallow end. The pool should slope from the shallow end to the deep end,
which should be 2 metres deep.
Materials
Furthermore, the steel mesh or grid utilised is intended to strengthen and reinforce the floor
or sides. The steel should be reinforced by tying it together with wires at some point. Good
plumbing should be done with high-grade pipe to prevent leaks and deterioration.
Finalizing and total Budget
Following the installation of the basement, a waterproofing material that does not allow water
to seep into the earth must be installed. The top of the pool is covered with tiles and coping to
keep the water in. The pool is ready at this point, but it must be given time to cure. To
summarise, the construction material costs Rs. 360,000.
Deliverables:
Great lakes is among the prestigious institutes of Chennai. Constructing a swimming pool
would result in the following things:
It would contribute to the brand name of Great Lakes.
It would nurture talents who could represent the college in national level
competitions.
It would encourage the students to learn a new hobby which would help them
diversify and add value to themselves.
It would contribute to community learning and growing together as the students
would learn from each other.
It would reinforce the fact that Great Lakes encourages the all-round development of
students which would let aspiring MBA candidates prefer this college over others.
Conclusion:
As it is seen setting up the project would be highly beneficial not only to the college but also
to the community at large. It will enable the college to nurture, grow and develop swimming
talents and skills to promote the general individual health, well-being, and social welfare of
the society. With the expertise of constructing swimming pools since the past three decades,
we have constructed over 70,000 pools nationwide. The largest pool builder in the country,
Premier pools and spas would be able to smoothly construct the swimming pool at Great
Lakes within the proposed timeline. The pool will have the latest features for safety and
would be of a professional level. It would be completed by 16 January 2023.
