BS EN 15288-1:2008+A1:2010EN 15288-1:2008+A1:2010 (E) 4 Introduction To provide a swimming pool which can be mana
24、ged as safely as possible, considerations have to start with careful design. All of those involved in designing new pools or upgrading existing ones will need to give the highest priority to ensuring that they provide users and staff with a facility that is safe. Four steps need to be developed in o
25、rder to achieve this: a) the layout of the pool hall (if any) and the pool basin (including its dimensions, profile and any water features) should be designed so as to make the safe use and supervision of the pool to achieve without complex or costly management arrangements; b) the layout of the anc
26、illary areas, including the changing, clothes storage, shower and toilet areas, should be similarly designed for safe use; c) the structural elements, materials, finishes and details, including the pool hall enclosure (if any), basin and equipment and the way they are assembled should be those which
27、 are the most appropriate to achieving a safe-to-use physical environment; d) criteria relevant for the planning of the safe and functionally correct maintenance. There are specific sources of information from which the technical design and planning standards that are recommended in the design of sw
28、imming pools can be obtained. Everyone who is involved in the process of specifying, designing and constructing pools should be familiar with these design and planning standards and should ensure that they are given careful consideration in all pool projects. It is also important to draw the attenti
29、on of all of those involved in the design process to the implications of their work for the pool operator. What might be thought a small change in the layout of the pool or in the finishes specified could have a significant impact on the ability of the pool to be used safely. If that change is ill-c
30、onsidered and creates a serious design flaw, the result might be an increase in accidents. More likely it will be an increase in the cost of operating the pool (perhaps through the employment of additional staff) in order to compensate for the resulting problems. One way of anticipating the manageme
31、nt consequences of design decisions is to include a qualified/competent person on the design team. The person should give advice and guidance during the various development stages of the project. This standard includes requirements, recommendations and notes. While compliance with requirements is ma
32、ndatory, recommendations indicate best practices and notes give additional information and/or explanations. BS EN 15288-1:2008+A1:2010EN 15288-1:2008+A1:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies safety requirements relevant to certain aspects of design and construction of classified pools
33、according to Clause 4. It is intended for those who are concerned with construction, planning and operation of classified swimming pools. It provides guidance about the risks associated by identifying the design characteristics required for a safe environment. The requirements of this European Stand
34、ard are applicable to all new classified pools and, as appropriate, to specific refurbishments of classified existing pools. This European Standard has limited application to classified pools which consist of segregated areas of rivers, lakes or the sea but should be followed where relevant. 2 Norma

Optional application of requirements to specific types is explained in the related paragraphs. The requirements apply as far as the selected i

Where minimum requirements are given for different types, the designer shall consider the kind of activity for
49、eseen and, should it be more similar to those of another type, refer to the most severe requirements. The occupancy ratio shall be defined at the design stage as the sum of the number of users: a) generated by the water related areas/activities; b) plus the number of users generated by other areas/activities.
