I had to repost because of a copywriter claim... This video dives further into Monopouring Icf forms for pools and all the advantages these pools have over Gunite. This video specifically gets into concrete consistency and slump, as well as how we manage to pour a multilevel pool and spillover and catch basin all at once!

I'm looking forward to a detailed video on EcoFinish.

@richardevans3109 2 года назад

Aaron - I'm an ICF pool builder in central Texas that follows your channel on RU-vid and have asked questions before :). I'm anxious to see how the Eco Finish is going to be applied to the ICF walls. I recall in one of your first RU-vid post about the process that you were covering the wall with Duroc, a parge coat and then Eco Finish. Is that still the process you are doing? I know you mentioned you didn't "love" this process because it was so labor intensive. I have several pools on the boards here and a Eco Finish authorized installer anxious to work with us but wanted to see how you were doing it before we proceed. Thanks!

Aaron, man, that's how I'm going for my pool. Finally found a way that fits. Monopour man, I just had a big discussion with a leading concrete prefab company for my wood chips bunker, I want it monopoured on site with prefab walls, caus part of the outside walls of that bunker will be part of the front view of my home and I want roughly cut lumber surface like my custom retaining wall, hence the prefab, and monopour cause damp wood chips are a terrific waste. How ever they want to do it traditional with labyrinth stripes in the cold joints... No way, I'm going for mono, show the pros how to do it :-) I'm having monolithic rain cisterns since years, so much better than plastic cisterns, and so much better than building rhem from prefab with in-situ concrete... Thanks. Since I'm in Europe I can't hire you guys, such a shame. Cheers and keep em coming. And hey, ask Matt from Matt's offroad how to blure faces, he's doing it for his folks that don't want to be on the channel... Make your content so much better, seeing how it's actually done (right).

When pouring that footing mix, is the empty 12” block and bracing holding back the concrete fill? Why not use clear gravel? Risk of it moving during the pour or something?

@all3pools 2 года назад

Every step from when we put the clean rock in until the pour is done adds lateral pressure like a boa constrictor…. We’ve had it push the wall bracing enough to make a visible bow that had to be addressed, or worse, when using 12” forms the webs themselves would begin to flex…. This is a way to ensure we only have to worry about it for a couple of hours early on in the process!

@jessefowler7226 2 года назад

Why is it poured so thick? 12” of concrete for a pool crazy to me.

@benduea2713 2 года назад

Way overkill

@henrycole8705 2 месяца назад

I have a lifetime career in the trades and you got it right using ICF blocks and ridged foam for any and all pools. Because the thermal break between the ground and concrete is very important. especially for Spas. Great job sir!

Stop using #3 steel tied 12 and 6 on center. I honestly have no idea what is happening there... people build differently i guess...

@scottrunnells5651 2 года назад

Aaron, I've watched a bunch of your videos. They are really enjoyable and informative. I'm doing an icf pool at my home in VA. I'm going with plaster as the finish. I haven't seen much online about installing the lights. I'm thinking of going with LED light fixtures. Do i need install an enclosure or is the fixture designed as stand alone? Do you have a preferred light to use in a plaster pool? Thanks, Scott

@pulporock 2 года назад

Really like you vids, Great bits of detail. I’m guessing an engineer specified the concrete and steel? Do you change the slump from 4” for floor and footings to a higher 6” to 8” for the walls? Merry Xmas all the best for the New year. Cheers from Oz

@all3pools 2 года назад

We usually keep the 4” in the walls snd try to concentrate on vibrating really good, too wet weakens the end result, we will wet up the flat portions of the floor a little bit but not much, if we need to runny to fill a tough to reach spot or the mono bag footers we usually use super plasticizer and take that 4 to a 7 for 30 min without adding water or sacrificing strength

@BWIL2515 Год назад

Man I love mono pours it just makes sense I've been in construction 47 years and I would instead of the normal framing of peirs and beam I would highly recommend this type of slab and walls and footers in one pour no cold joints

@mattmatt222333 7 месяцев назад

Isn't shotcrete or gunite monolithic too? No cold joints

@damaral1216 4 месяца назад

@boomersD9CAT Год назад

Better than Gunite because you get a consistent thickness (no variation in thickness of walls and floor) Gunite/Shotcrete thickness depends on the skill set of the nozzle man, and how well the pool is excavated. If the nozzle man adds too much or not enough water , then the shell can be compromised. Shotcrete can plug up in the hoses, and on a hot day,it can be a nightmare to carve n shape.

@1073wheeler Год назад

Seriously overkill. I mean are you expecting the pool to survive a direct hit, then I understand. But MY GOD…. that’s just way overkill and economically not feasible to compete in a big market. Been pouring concrete around pools for 40 years. That is CRAZY!

@all3pools Год назад

You have no idea what you are talking about…. None…. We compete(and typically beat) Gunite prices and we use ecofinish which is far superior to plasters and paints…. Plus the big benefit we are thermally broken making our pools way easier to heat and cool…. Pouring concrete (around) pools doesn’t mean you know the economics of the pool biz, I’ve trained nearly 100 new builders in the past 18 months and consult from coast to coast, I have a pretty good idea of the market…. This pool was priced pre pandemic and pre inflation at 115k, find me a Gunite guy who could do that, in fact adjust it to 140k for all the material increases and find me someone, 20x40, 36’ infinity edge, gas heat, I’ll wait

@libertyrockwalls 8 месяцев назад

Aaron! Do you guys not have flowfill? Basically it’s cheaper than concrete but flows out of the concrete truck like concrete and it doesn’t settle. It’s required in Utah under the major roads… maybe it would be a better solution for you? Just a thought

@all3pools 8 месяцев назад

We do not have flowable fill, my plant claims it’s no cheaper than super crappy l2000 footing mix in our market so they don’t carry it…

@douglaskoski5219 2 года назад

I have soooo many questions. I watch you build with Perfect Block and I have questions. If you don't answer me I understand. I am attaching my pool plans so you can refer to what I'm doing. I'm building a swimming pool jacuzzi love seat and tanning deck within a 22' X40' ICCF swimming pool that will be heated year around. 1. Can I just dig a rectangular hole in my ground and fill with rock to achieve my 3' 6' 3' play pool or does my ground need to match what depths I'm trying to achieve in a play pool flooring foundation? 2. I'm using 10" perfect Blocks for the perimeter walls of the pool. The back wall above the pool line will be a 5' wall above ground attached to the pool wall. For the perimeter walls foundation do I want to use Fab Form, Fast Foot, Foothold, or Form a Drain for my Foundation? The inert walls will be either 6" or 8" perfect Blocks or should I Gunite the interior with Rebar and Gunite? 3. I was originally going to use Amvic Icf form and litedeck for the pool flooring, now I want Perfect Blocks as they seem easier and built in the US. what icf can I use for the pool flooring as I was going to have radiant floor heating? 4. Can I use an high density insulation sheathing for the pool floor as this is where all the heat escapes? 5. I am doing most of the work myself, I'm on a budget and like to do DIY stuff. But this is a huge project and I'm frightened. LOL. 6. I will be using Pebble Tec for the pool finish. I hope you can help and look forward to your input.

@all3pools 2 года назад

I would use icf over perfect block iccf for sure…. You cannot get the same structural integrity out of a block with tubes of concrete that you will get out of a monolithic wall in an icf form, people spend a lot of time thinking about the finish and not enough timevv bc thinking about the structure!

@klemen_1981 Год назад

Hello, thank you for your video. I was wondering how high is the pool wall at the deep end side - I assume approximately 2.5m (8.5 feet)? There are very little rebar rods on so high wall, I would hardly believe this wall will withstand the forces. Did you do the reinforcement calculations?

@all3pools Год назад

Yes it’s engineered, and there’s rebar vertically every 8” horizontally every 16, not sure what I mean very little?

@klemen_1981 11 месяцев назад

@@all3pools : Thank you for your reply. I did a i simple calculation. The pressure of the water at the bottom of the 2.5m tall wall: p = 10 kN/m3 * 2.5m = 25 kN/m2 The load at the bottom of the wall would then be: M = 25 kN/m3 * (2.5m)^2 / 6 = 26 kNm / m_of_wall If you calculate the minimal required armature cross section for 12" thick wall (8" = 20cm core width, 2" = 5 concrete cover): Amin = 26 kNm / (20 cm - 5 cm) / 45 kN/cm2 = 3.85 cm2 / m_of_wall From the video it seems you have a #4 or #5 (no data, my estimation) rebar at 40" vertical spacing (this is what you told in the video and seems right). This means the your rebar cross section is: #4 rebar: A = 2.5 rebars/m * 1.25 cm2/rebar = 3.1 cm2 / m_of_wall ( not enough ) #5 rebar: A = 2.5 rebars/m * 2 cm2/rebar = 5 cm2 / m_of_wall ( very little safety factor ) Another thing i would consider - if you check the video image at 7:31: - the rebar overlapping should be at least 40D, which is 0.5m (20"). I think your overlapping is too short. - Also the rebar should run vertical to the bottom and than horizontally in line with the bottom slab armature, not in line with top slab armature like in your case.
