6- Apply a cement plaster to the walls,
followed by insulation.
7- Backfill around the pool and insulate the interior of the blocks.
8- Fill the pool floor with sand.
9- Pour a cement slab over the sand to create a protective layer for the floor.
10-Install the pool rebar (walls and floor) and extend plumbing and electrical work.
11- Apply a water stop strip between the walls and floor.
12- Place the wall forms on the rebar.
13- Open the forms when the pool is lit and install the electrical work before pouring the walls.

15- Apply chemical cement insulation (Sika 107) to the pool.
