Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of constructing a self-supporting structure for creating a pool such as a swimming pool, said self-supporting structure comprising at least a plurality of panels arranged to be assembled side by side in order to form at least part of the outline said panel, said panels being associated or not with struts arranged at least partly around the self-supporting structure.
- the present invention also relates to a pool defined by a self-supporting structure comprising at least a plurality of panels arranged to be assembled side by side in order to form at least partly the outline of said basin, said basin being obtained from said method of construction.
- the construction of a basin requires several successive stages and often tedious.
- the first step is a tracing step that consists of drawing the outline of the basin on the ground. Then you can proceed with the earthwork, by excavating the ground inside the basin contour and exceeding all around a margin of about 50 centimeters to have a sufficient work space. Then, we put the structure of the pool namely an assembly of self-supporting panels and struts that maintain the panels and give them sufficient rigidity and extend obliquely to the edge of the excavation. To stabilize the structure of the basin, pouring a sole, for example, concrete between the structure and the edge of the excavation.
- the bottom of the basin is formed, for example, by making a screed or by placing sand on the surface of the demarcated soil. by the basin structure.
- Backfilling is then done, the lining of the pond, for example, a liner or tiling.
- we proceed to the finishing by laying, for example, margins along the edges.
- dalettes which may consist of blocks or pavers, are commonly used. They are placed on the ground at regular intervals and sealed on the ground, for example, with concrete. For leveling, it is necessary to use for example a leveling tool, such as a laser beam level. The dalettes serve as a support surface to receive the panels of the basin structure. Because the horizontal alignment of the dalettes influences the level of the basin structure, it is imperative to ensure alignment during installation. Indeed, once sealed in the ground, it will no longer be possible to rectify level errors. Therefore, such a way of proceeding can represent a source of inaccuracy of the level of the structure of the basin.
- struts are placed between the self-supporting panels and the edge of the excavation.
- the struts must also be sealed in the ground. To do so, we excavate the ground so as to create a punctual foundation under each leg of force. The struts are then fixed vertically to the panels and above each excavation. Then, two butts are placed at the base of each leg. Finally, the struts are sealed to the ground by pouring, for example, concrete in each excavation. This procedure has several disadvantages. On the one hand, before sealing, the struts do not rest on anything because of the presence of the excavations.
- the pond structure has a plurality of interconnected panels placed in frames and held vertically by struts.
- the leveling system is arranged and attached to the struts or the wall section frame and adjusts the panels in a vertical direction.
- the leveling system is coupled to the level of the horizontal strut of the strut or the lower bar of the frame. Indeed, it comprises a bolt passing through a tapped hole provided in the horizontal plug of the strut or the lower bar of the frame, and secured to a support plate on the ground.
- the level variation is made by screwing or unscrewing the bolt to change the height of the horizontal plug or the lower bar relative to the backing plate.
- Such a leveling system solidarity panels or struts is not satisfactory because it is necessary to modify the panels or the struts by making tapped holes therein.
- This leveling system is not adapted to a structure formed of flat panels without a frame.
- the location of the leveling system is also predetermined, which does not adapt to any type of soil or any type of structure. For these reasons, the solutions of the prior art are not satisfactory.
- the present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages by proposing a basin construction method that is easier to implement, faster and less expensive compared to the current process, the method of which the step of laying the self-supporting structure of the basin is simplified and allows a precise and aligned pose of said structure, which whatever the nature of the terrain and whatever the nature of the structure to be aligned such as a strut, a panel, a staircase, etc.

- At least one adjustable stud is placed independently on the ground under each leg of force.
- the said struts are fixed to the ground by means of at least one anchoring member to anchor the self-supporting structure of the basin to the ground before placing a footing.

- the self-supporting structure 2 is intended to be positioned indirectly via independent adjustable studs 3, on the ground S, which is preferably level. It can be placed in an excavation 14, if the basin is buried, semi-buried, or not, if the basin is above ground.
- the self-supporting structure 2 comprises a plurality of panels 21, as illustrated by FIG. figure 4 .
- the panels 21 may, for example, be made of steel sheets. They can be flat and have a substantially rectangular shape or be bent to form, for example, angles or pools with free shapes. They can also be self-supporting, in this case no strut 4 is necessary.
- the panels 21 are arranged side by side and their lateral ends 211 form a zone of 212. The ends 211 of two adjacent panels 21 are fixed together.
- the self-supporting structure 2 may also comprise an auxiliary element, such as a staircase 7, as shown in FIG. figure 8 .

- the shape of the adjustable pad 3 is not limited by the example illustrated.
- the adjustable pad 3 comprises a support base 31 intended to be arranged on the ground S and a receiving area 32 intended to receive, for example, a panel 21 or a strut 4, the support base 31 and the receiving area 32 being parallel.
- the adjustable pad 3 is independent of the panel 21 or the strut 4 or the auxiliary element, as illustrated.
- the adjustable stud 3 is a part positioned below the panel 21 or the strut 4 at the time of installation.
- the receiving zone 32 of the adjustable pad 3 is arranged to receive a portion of the panel 21 or the strut 4 without using any other intermediate fixing means.
- the panel 21 or the strut 4 can rest on the receiving area 32 without intermediate fixing means and without being bound.
- the adjustable pad 3 has the advantage of adapting to any type of panel, strut, or auxiliary element, and to be positioned on the ground at the desired location. No modification of an existing freestanding structure is therefore necessary. It further comprises an adjusting member 34 extending perpendicularly between the bearing base 31 and the receiving zone 32, formed of a threaded tube 341 screwed into a threaded sleeve 342.
- the tube 341 carries the receiving zone 32 and the sleeve 342 bears the support base 31.
- the adjustment member 34 further comprises an adjustment ring 343 connected to the sleeve 342 which makes it possible to turn the sleeve 342 relative to the tube 341 or vice versa.
- Such a body of setting 34 allows the receiving area 32 to be movable in axial translation of said pad, that is to say vertically if the adjustable pad 3 is placed on a horizontal ground S.
- the receiving area 32 receives a panel 21 or a strut 4
- these are also vertically movable. It is thus possible to simply, rapidly and accurately adjust the height of the panel 21 or the strut 4.
- the present invention is not limited by this choice of adjustable pad 3.
- the strut 4 is illustrated in detail in Figures 2A and 2B . It is formed of a vertical upright 41 and a horizontal plug 42 substantially perpendicular to each other and connected by a diagonal counter-plug 43 more or less inclined. They are interconnected by fasteners 44.
- the vertical upright 41 has a plurality of orifices 411 arranged to receive fasteners and to fix the strut 4 to a panel 21 of the self-supporting structure 2
- the horizontal plug 42 also comprises at least two holes 421 for each receiving a concrete reinforcing bar 45 intended to anchor the strut 4 in the ground S.
- the struts 4 are arranged to give sufficient rigidity to the rectilinear panels 21.
- the strut 4 rests on the ground S via an adjustable stud 3 disposed under the horizontal plug 42, without any means of attachment, to adjust the level of the strut 4 and therefore the verticality of the panel 21 to which it is attached.
- the adjustable pad 3 is independent of the strut 4 and its ground position can be chosen more freely than if it was secured to the strut.
- FIG. 3 to 8 describes a method of constructing a buried basin in the ground S.
- it begins, firstly, by drawing the outline of the basin on the ground S. Then, we excave inside the contour basin 11 and beyond this basin outline 11 on a margin 12 of about 50 centimeters.
- this margin 12 is arranged to arrange a work space between the edge of the excavation 14 and the self-supporting structure 2 once in place.
- legs of forces 4 and foundations Again trace the basin contour 11, this time in the bottom 13 of the excavation 14.
- a second step we proceed to assembly of the supporting structure 2 of the basin.
- An adjustable pad 3 is placed on the ground to determine a reference level.
- the adjustable stud 3 is placed at an angle to start the assembly of the self-supporting structure 2.
- Two panels 21 are assembled at their respective ends 211 in the junction zone 212 and the junction 212 of the two adjacent panels 21 on the adjustable reference pad 3.
- the assembly of the self-supporting structure 2 is continued by independently arranging an adjustable stud 3 at the free end 211 of the panel 21 already in place. The operation is repeated until the self-supporting structure 2 forms at least part of the outline of the basin 11, as shown in FIGS. Figures 4 and 5 .
- the leveling can thus be carried out as and when mounting the self-supporting structure 2.
- an adjustable pad 3 under each junction 212 of panels 21 is an adjustable pad 3.
- the adjustable pads 3 under the junctions 212 are not integral with the panels 21. This results in ease of implementation of the assembly, since no additional fastening means nor any modification of the panels 21 are necessary. It is also possible to add during laying an additional adjustable pad 3 at the lower longitudinal edge 213 of the panel 21, which is not the case in the prior art because the position of the adjustable pads 3 is predetermined. This is of interest for panels 21 of great length. When assembling two panels 21 adjacent to each other, the adjacent panel 21 is aligned in height so that it is level by adjusting the height of the adjustable pad 3 located under the junction area 212.
- the panel 21 is aligned adjacent to the outline of the basin contour 11.
- the two panels 21 are then fixed together. This procedure advantageously makes it possible to adjust the level of the panels 21, even though the panels 21 are on the adjustable pads 3. This is not the case in the prior art, when using sealed dalettes that require to be level before being permanently sealed and prior to the installation of the panels 21.
- Another advantage of the process is that the use of adjustable studs 3 independent can adapt to any type of terrain since it is possible to move and distribute the adjustable studs 3 freely.
- struts 4 are distributed around the self-supporting structure 2. More particularly, they are fixed on the panels 21 in the rectilinear sections of the self-supporting structure 2 and outside the junction areas 212. However, some panels 21 may be lacking. strut 4, as is the case for 21 curved or self-supporting panels forming for example an angle. To fix the strut 4 to a panel 21, the vertical upright 41 of the strut 4 is fixed on at least a portion of the height of the panel 21. Then, an adjustable stud 3 is placed under the horizontal plug 42 and substantially in the middle.
- the height of the strut 4 is then adjusted by means of the adjusting member 34 of the adjustable pad 3.
- the verticality of the panels 21 of the self-supporting structure 2 can be adjusted by varying the height of the adjustable studs 3 arranged under the struts 4.
- the struts 4 are intended to maintain the self-supporting structure 2 vertically relative to the ground S, in particular the straight portions of this self-supporting structure 2, in their conferring sufficient rigidity to withstand on the one hand the pressure of the water on the inner side of the basin and on the other hand the pressure of the embankment on the outside of the basin.
- the self-supporting structure 2 is immobilized on the ground S.
- the struts 4 are fixed to the ground S in placing an anchoring member, such as reinforcing bars 45 or the like in the orifices 421 provided in each horizontal plug 42.
- the reinforcing bars 45 are driven into the ground S.

- the basin may have an ancillary element such as a technical room as shown by Figures 10A and 10B , a skimmer called "skimmer", a staircase 7, as shown in figure 7 .
- the self-supporting structure 2 comprises a plurality of panels 21 and the staircase 7 generally made of a single piece or not, made of molded or injected synthetic materials.
- the staircase 7 rests on a plurality of columns 8.
- the columns 8 are each arranged on an independent adjustable stud 3 which makes it possible to adjust the level of the staircase 7 by adjusting the height of each adjustable stud 3 with the help of the adjustment member 34.
- the columns 8 withstand the pressure exerted by the body of water that covers the staircase 7 once the basin fills with water. Again, no modification of the staircase 7 is necessary to allow the use of the adjustable studs 3, these being independent.
- adjustable pads 301, 302 are independent of the column 8.
- a first adjustable pad 301 is disposed under the base 81 of the column 8 and a second adjustable pad 302 is disposed on the upper end 82 of the column 8.

Description
La présente invention concerne un procédé de construction d'une structure autoportante pour créer un bassin tel qu'une piscine, ladite structure autoportante comportant au moins une pluralité de panneaux agencés pour être assemblés côte à côte en vue de former au moins en partie le contour dudit bassin, lesdits panneaux étant associés ou non à des jambes de force disposées au moins en partie autour de la structure autoportante.The present invention relates to a method of constructing a self-supporting structure for creating a pool such as a swimming pool, said self-supporting structure comprising at least a plurality of panels arranged to be assembled side by side in order to form at least part of the outline said panel, said panels being associated or not with struts arranged at least partly around the self-supporting structure.
La présente invention concerne également un bassin défini par une structure autoportante comportant au moins une pluralité de panneaux agencés pour être assemblés côte à côte en vue de former au moins en partie le contour dudit bassin, ledit bassin étant obtenu à partir dudit procédé de construction.The present invention also relates to a pool defined by a self-supporting structure comprising at least a plurality of panels arranged to be assembled side by side in order to form at least partly the outline of said basin, said basin being obtained from said method of construction.
La construction d'un bassin nécessite plusieurs étapes successives et souvent fastidieuses. La première étape est une étape de traçage qui consiste à tracer au sol le contour du bassin. L'on peut alors ensuite procéder au terrassement, en effectuant l'excavation du terrain à l'intérieur du contour du bassin et en dépassant tout autour d'une marge d'environ 50 centimètres pour disposer d'un espace de travail suffisant. Puis, l'on pose la structure du bassin à savoir un assemblage de panneaux autoportants et de jambes de force qui maintiennent les panneaux et leur confèrent une rigidité suffisante et s'étendent en biais vers le bord de l'excavation. Pour stabiliser la structure du bassin, on coule une semelle, par exemple, en béton entre la structure et le bord de l'excavation. Ensuite, l'on forme le fond du bassin, par exemple, en réalisant une chape ou en disposant du sable à la surface du sol délimitée par la structure du bassin. On remblaie puis, l'on pose le revêtement du bassin, par exemple, un liner ou du carrelage. Pour terminer, on procède aux finitions en posant, par exemple, des margelles le long des bords.The construction of a basin requires several successive stages and often tedious. The first step is a tracing step that consists of drawing the outline of the basin on the ground. Then you can proceed with the earthwork, by excavating the ground inside the basin contour and exceeding all around a margin of about 50 centimeters to have a sufficient work space. Then, we put the structure of the pool namely an assembly of self-supporting panels and struts that maintain the panels and give them sufficient rigidity and extend obliquely to the edge of the excavation. To stabilize the structure of the basin, pouring a sole, for example, concrete between the structure and the edge of the excavation. Then, the bottom of the basin is formed, for example, by making a screed or by placing sand on the surface of the demarcated soil. by the basin structure. Backfilling is then done, the lining of the pond, for example, a liner or tiling. Finally, we proceed to the finishing by laying, for example, margins along the edges.
La pose de la structure du bassin est une étape importante et délicate à mettre en oeuvre. En général, la structure du bassin n'est pas directement posée au sol puisqu'il faut s'assurer qu'elle soit posée de niveau. A cet effet, des dalettes, qui peuvent consister en des parpaings ou des pavés, sont couramment utilisées. Elles sont placées au sol à intervalles réguliers et scellées au sol, par exemple, avec du béton. Pour qu'elles soient posées de niveau, il est nécessaire d'utiliser par exemple un outil de mise à niveau, comme un niveau à faisceau laser. Les dalettes servent de surface d'appui pour recevoir les panneaux de la structure du bassin. Du fait que l'alignement horizontal des dalettes influe sur le niveau de la structure du bassin, il est impératif de s'assurer de leur alignement lors de la pose. En effet, une fois scellées dans le sol, il ne sera plus possible de rectifier les erreurs de niveau. Par conséquent, une telle manière de procéder peut représenter une source d'imprécision du niveau de la structure du bassin.The laying of the basin structure is an important and delicate step to implement. In general, the basin structure is not directly placed on the ground since it must be ensured that it is level. For this purpose, dalettes, which may consist of blocks or pavers, are commonly used. They are placed on the ground at regular intervals and sealed on the ground, for example, with concrete. For leveling, it is necessary to use for example a leveling tool, such as a laser beam level. The dalettes serve as a support surface to receive the panels of the basin structure. Because the horizontal alignment of the dalettes influences the level of the basin structure, it is imperative to ensure alignment during installation. Indeed, once sealed in the ground, it will no longer be possible to rectify level errors. Therefore, such a way of proceeding can represent a source of inaccuracy of the level of the structure of the basin.
Pour stabiliser les parties rectilignes de la structure du bassin et leur garantir une rigidité suffisante, l'on place des jambes de force entre les panneaux autoportants et le bord de l'excavation. Pour garantir un ancrage mécanique de la structure du bassin, les jambes de force doivent également être scellées dans le sol. Pour se faire, on excave le sol de sorte à créer une fondation ponctuelle sous chaque jambe de force. On fixe ensuite les jambes de force à la verticale des panneaux et au dessus de chaque excavation. Puis, on place deux crosses de scellement à la base de chaque jambe de force. Pour terminer, on scelle les jambes de force au sol en coulant, par exemple, du béton dans chaque excavation. Cette façon de procéder présente plusieurs inconvénients. D'une part, avant le scellement, les jambes de force ne reposent sur rien, du fait de la présence des excavations. Par conséquent, la fixation des jambes de forces à la verticale des panneaux est complexe à mettre en oeuvre. D'autre part, après le scellement, il ne sera plus possible de rectifier les erreurs de niveau, ni la verticalité des panneaux. Par conséquent, cette méthode n'est pas satisfaisante car elle ne permet pas d'ajuster facilement la verticalité des panneaux de la structure autoportante.To stabilize the rectilinear parts of the basin structure and guarantee them sufficient rigidity, struts are placed between the self-supporting panels and the edge of the excavation. To ensure mechanical anchoring of the pond structure, the struts must also be sealed in the ground. To do so, we excavate the ground so as to create a punctual foundation under each leg of force. The struts are then fixed vertically to the panels and above each excavation. Then, two butts are placed at the base of each leg. Finally, the struts are sealed to the ground by pouring, for example, concrete in each excavation. This procedure has several disadvantages. On the one hand, before sealing, the struts do not rest on anything because of the presence of the excavations. Therefore, the attachment of the force legs to the vertical panels is complex to implement. On the other hand, after sealing, it will no longer be possible to rectify the level errors or the verticality of the panels. Therefore, this method is not satisfactory because it does not allow to easily adjust the verticality of the panels of the freestanding structure.

Dans une forme de réalisation préférée, les panneaux de ladite structure autoportante sont autoportants, et l'on positionne lesdits plots réglables indépendamment desdits panneaux entre le sol et lesdits panneaux et l'on règle leur niveau pour ajuster l'horizontalité desdits panneaux.In a preferred embodiment, the panels of said self-supporting structure are self-supporting, and said adjustable pads are positioned independently of said panels between the floor and said panels and their level is adjusted to adjust the horizontality of said panels.
Dans une variante de réalisation, ladite structure autoportante comporte lesdits panneaux dont une partie au moins est associée à des jambes de force, et l'on positionne lesdits plots réglables indépendamment desdites jambes de force entre le sol et lesdites jambes de force et l'on règle leur niveau pour ajuster la verticalité desdits panneaux et/ ou l'horizontalité desdits panneaux.In an alternative embodiment, said self-supporting structure comprises said panels, at least a portion of which is associated with struts, and said adjustable pads are positioned independently of said struts between the ground and said struts and one adjust their level to adjust the verticality of said panels and / or the horizontality of said panels.

En référence aux figures, la présente invention concerne un procédé de construction d'un bassin, tel que par exemple une piscine. Ce procédé permet plus particulièrement de construire la structure autoportante 2 du bassin et d'ajuster son niveau et sa verticalité. Dans ce but, la structure autoportante 2 comporte une pluralité de panneaux 21 reposant sur des plots réglables 3, indépendants de la structure autoportante 2, et disposés au sol S. La structure autoportante 2 peut être consolidée par une pluralité de jambes de force 4 reposant eux aussi sur des plots réglables 3.With reference to the figures, the present invention relates to a method of constructing a pool, such as for example a swimming pool. This method allows more particularly to build the self-supporting structure 2 of the basin and adjust its level and verticality. For this purpose, the self-supporting structure 2 comprises a plurality of
Le bassin peut consister en une piscine, un bassin de jardin, etc. Il peut tout aussi bien consister en une piscine enterrée en partie ou en totalité, qu'en une piscine hors-sol. Dans le premier cas, il est nécessaire d'excaver le sol S, tel que représenté à la
La structure autoportante 2 est destinée à être positionnée indirectement par l'intermédiaire de plots réglables 3 indépendants, au sol S, qui est de préférence de niveau. Elle peut être placée dans une excavation 14, si le bassin est enterré, semi-enterré, ou non, si le bassin est hors-sol. La structure autoportante 2 comporte une pluralité de panneaux 21, comme l'illustre la

On poursuit l'assemblage de la structure autoportante 2 en disposant indépendamment un plot réglable 3 à l'extrémité 211 libre du panneau 21 déjà en place. On répète l'opération jusqu'à ce que la structure autoportante 2 forme au moins en partie le contour du bassin 11, comme cela est représenté aux
Dans un troisième temps, l'on procède au montage des jambes de force 4, comme l'illustre les
Dans un quatrième temps, après s'être assuré du niveau de la structure autoportante 2 et de la verticalité des panneaux 21, on immobilise la structure autoportante 2 au sol S. Pour se faire, on fixe les jambes de force 4 au sol S en plaçant un organe d'ancrage, tel que des fers à béton 45 ou similaire dans les orifices 421 prévus dans chaque fiche horizontale 42. On enfonce les fers à béton 45 dans le sol S.In a fourth step, after having ascertained the level of the self-supporting structure 2 and the verticality of the
Pour terminer, on coule une semelle filante 6 entre la structure autoportante 2 et le bord de l'excavation 14, le long des sections droites. Cette semelle filante 6 est armée avec des fers à béton 5. La
Le bassin peut comporter un élément annexe tel, qu'un local technique comme le montrent les
Il est également possible de prévoir deux plots réglables 301, 302 de part et d'autre de la colonne 8, comme le montre l'exemple de la
