Acrylic Transparent Swimming Pool: A Modern Marvel
The acrylic transparent swimming pool is a stunning architectural innovation made from transparent materials. If you’ve watched the movie “Mechanic 2,” you might recall the breathtaking scene of a “transparent suspended” swimming pool extending from a rooftop. This pool appears to float in the sky, offering swimmers a thrilling and unforgettable experience.
Transparent Swimming Pool Materials
Transparent swimming pools are typically made from glass or acrylic. However, each material has its pros and cons:
- Tempered Glass Swimming Pools:
- Bonded with glass glue.
- Highly restricted in use due to temperature sensitivity (prone to cracking in large temperature differences).
- Limited tolerance and shaping ability compared to acrylic.
- Acrylic Swimming Pools:
- Crystal-like transparency and high light transmittance.
- Excellent strength, chemical stability, and weather resistance.
- Easy to process and shape, making it the preferred choice for transparent swimming pools.
Design of Transparent Swimming Pools
The design of a transparent swimming pool involves replacing the side panels or bottom plates with transparent acrylic. This creates a seamless visual effect where the water surface aligns with the transparent opening, offering a 360-degree view of the surroundings.
Key Features:
- Aesthetic Appeal: The pool blends with the sky and landscape, creating the illusion of swimming in mid-air.
- Thrilling Experience: Swimmers feel as though they are floating in the sky, making it a unique and exhilarating experience.
Example: Embassy Gardens, London
- Located between two 10-story buildings, 35 meters above the ground.
- Dimensions: 27 meters long, 3 meters deep, and 6 meters wide.
- Made with 20 cm thick acrylic panels, allowing swimmers to walk or swim between the buildings.
Benefits of Acrylic Swimming Pools
Acrylic, often called “plastic crystal,” offers numerous advantages:
- High Transparency: Light transmittance exceeds 92%.
- Weather Resistance: Withstands sunlight, wind, and rain without losing performance.
- Ease of Processing: Can be easily cut, shaped, and thermoformed.
- Safety: 16 times stronger than glass of the same thickness, making it ideal for high-safety areas.
- Lightweight: Half the weight of glass, reducing structural load.
- Eco-Friendly: Recyclable and environmentally sustainable.
- Low Maintenance: Easy to clean with just soap and a soft cloth.
