192 FR 2.1.2.2 25m swimming pools. The admissible tolerance in 25.00 m swimming pools will be +0.010, -0.000 metre when touch panels are installed. Tolerances will be measured as follows: For swimming pools with touch panels of Automatic Officiating Equipment on both ends the Wall to Wall distance shall be: Minimum 25.020 metre / Maximum 25.030 metre. For swimming pools with a touch panel of Automatic Officiating Equipment on one end the Wall to Wall distance shall be: Minimum 25.010 metre / Maximum 25.020 metre. Tolerances have to be consistent 0.300 metre above to 0.800 metre bellow the water surface. These measurements should be certified by a surveyor or other qualified official, appointed or approved by the Member in the country in which the pool is situated. FR 2.1.3 Width There is no minimum width requirement. However, the width of the pool has to comply with the FR 2.1.6 Lanes. FR 2.1.4 Depth A minimum depth of 1.35 metres, extending from 1.0 metre to at least 6.0 metres from the end wall is required for pools with starting blocks. A minimum depth of 1.0 metre is required elsewhere. FR 2.1.5 Walls FR 2.1.5.1 End walls shall be vertical, parallel and form 90 degree right angles to the swimming course and to the surface of the water. They shall be constructed of solid material, with a slip-resistant surface extending 0.8 metre below the water surface, so as to enable the competitor to touch and push off in turning without hazard. The admissible tolerance in walls verticality will be ±0.3 degrees FR 2.1.5.2 Rest ledges along the pool walls are permitted; they must be not less than 1.2 metres below the water surface, and may be 0.1 metre to 0.15 metre wide. Both internal and external ledges are acceptable, however internal ledges are preferred. FR 2.1.5.3 Gutters may be placed on all four walls of the pool. If end wall gutters are installed, they must allow for attachment of touch panels to the required 0.3 metre above the water surface. They must be covered with a suitable grill or screen. FR 2.1.6 Lanes There is no minimum number of lanes. Lanes shall be at least 2.5 metres wide, first and last lane may be 2.4 metres wide with 2 spaces of at least 0.1 metres wide outside of the first and the last lanes. FR 2.1.7 Lane Ropes FR 2.1.7.1 The main function of a lane rope is not only to separate swimming lanes, but to reduce the pool waves. A lane rope should have the properties to reduce the waves going through to the other side of rope or bouncing back into the swimming lane. Lane ropes shall extend the full length of the course and components not contributing to its wave reduction function, such as tension spring and take-up reel, shall measure less than 200mm each end of rope. Lane rope should be secured at each end wall to anchor brackets recessed into the end walls. If anchor placement is on pool deck, an extender, firm and non-elastic, should be in place. The installed lane rope should stay in the pool water. The anchor, including extender, shall not extend more than 10mm into the pool. The anchor shall not influence the length of the lane rope by more than ± 10mm each end of rope. The anchor shall be positioned so that the wave reducing components at each end wall of the pool shall be 50% below the surface of the water.
