Section 444.114 - Side walls and bottoms1. The side walls and bottoms of all pools must be constructed of materials which are inert, nontoxic to humans, impervious, permanent and enduring and which can withstand the anticipated loading for empty and full conditions.2. Pools must be constructed of concrete or other impervious and structurally rigid materials with a finish adapted to the bathing demands of different areas of the pools. All side walls and bottom surfaces must be watertight, free from structural cracks, and have a slip-resistant finish which is smooth and easily cleanable. Floors and walls below the gutter and 6-inch tile line must be white or light pastel in color and must reflect any natural or artificial light.3. Any design incorporated into the construction of a pool or painted on the floor or walls must not prevent the detection of algae, sediment, a human in distress or other objects in the pool. Permission in writing from the health authority for the use of a design must be obtained before the design is used.4. All corners formed by the intersection of walls and floors must be covered. Painting of new pools is not recommended.5. Provision must be made for the relief of pressures which might occur as a result of unbalanced exterior hydrostatic pressures, or means must be provided for positive and continuous drainage from under the pool floor and around the pool walls wherever groundwater is present.6. Provision must be made to protect the pool structure from both internal and external stresses which may develop due to freezing.Nev. Admin. Code § 444.114
