Abstract
Abstract A STRUCTURE EXTENDING OUTWARDLY FROM THE WALL OF A SWIMMING POOL MAINLY COMBINES THE FUNCTIONS OF A DECK EXTENDING ALONGSIDE THE POOL, AND A GIRDER RESISTING FORCES EXERTED HORIZONTALLY BY THE PRESSURE OF WATER ON THE SIDE WALLS OF THE POOL. THE STRUCTURE INCLUDES A FLAT WEB SERVING AS A DECKING, AND EXTRUCTIONS RECEIVING THE INNER AND OUTER EDGES OF THE WEB. THE EXTRUCTIONS AND WEB FORM A GIRDER, AND ALSO SERVE TO CONNECT THE DECKING TO THE POOL WALL STRUCTURE AND SURROUNDING SUPPORT FRAMING. ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS SUCH AS THOSE OF A LINER RETAINER, GRAB RAIL, AND COPING MAY BE BUILT INTO THE INNER EXTRUCTION.
