Bull nosed paving bricks
The concrete shell in a standard pool is 150 mm -200 mm thick. The basic bull nose paving brick is approximately 270 mm wide and 400 mm long and is cemented on top of the concrete shell and slightly overhangs the outer pool wall and the water side.
Concrete Shell
This is important to provide an anti splash edge to prevent water leaving the pool when waves from swimming activity hit the wall.
Water loss is a major issue with fibreglass pools without an anti splash edge.
Overflow water loss leads to backfill collapse and sunken paving around the pool.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT PAVING BRICK
There are many manufacturers of paving bricks.The products are available in a wide range of colours, materials and textures and requires the client’s input before installation .
Selection should be based on a non slip finish and of course the total paving in the pool surrounds.
Light coloured pavers are cooler in the sun than dark pavers and will prevent getting your feet burned.
Rough surfaces such as exposed aggregate and quartz finishes may look fancy but can catch bathing costumes, remove skin from little feet and scratch legs.
Pavers with a non slip surface but with a smooth bullnose face can prevent scratching skin when people are pulling themselves out of the pool.
We recommend the specialist poolside bullnose range from STONE SENSATION which are perfect for a concrete pool.
