OK I have done lots of reasearch on this.
To have my 15 foot pool filled to the following levels, the following floor limits must apply.
For it to be filled to a depth of 1 foot, the floor must be able to support a weight of 5tons, equivelent to a dance floor that can hold 55 people.
For it to be filled to a depth of 2 feet, the floor must be able to support a weight of 10tons, equivelent to a dance floor that can hold 110 people.
For it to be filled to a depth of 3 feet, the floor must be able to support a weight of 15tons, equivelent to a dance floor that can hold 115 people.
I have allowed extra for the weight of the people in the pool.
Just one of many, many issues to be covered when deciding to organise this sort of thing! Trust me, it is in no way as easy as it looks!

By Sopping - Sat 21/12/02 23:20:12 GMT MK raises an interesting point. If these are not on ground level, the weight of the water, namely every 7.5 gallons weighs 62.5 lbs ( sorry metric folks, my highschool phyisics was in the old system!)and before long you are asking the floors and walls to carry a substantial load.
Just wondering.

These pics provide some interesting insights on portable pool equipments. At the beginning of the galleries, the pool looks great...just the kind that leonmoomin should have for his portable pool party plans. However, halfway thru the galleries, the pool appears to have collapsed...so I am wondering if this was dismantled intentionally, or just collapsed due to too much abuse from the partygoers. Thats the problem with these portable pools...too much abuse and they don't last for long....so I like to see all the pool parties held in the UK and Germany...to ascertain which kind of portable pool each venue uses...and which is the most durable if we were to start organizng these events too.
