Canberra Olympic Swimming Pool

The client brief was to dismantle and recycle the existing inflatable air-supported membrane and provide a replacement structure with enhanced performance by reducing running costs, and creating a better internal environment.

The replacement structure was designed with a special 3 coat high build paint system to avoid corrosion in the harsh aquatic environment.

Unique features include an external and internal liner fabric system, providing an insulation air gap that is mechanically ventilated with either warm or cool air to increase thermal control.  The clients expectations were well exceeded with innovative design elements that have dramatically reduced running cost, while translucent fabric allows ample natural daylight.
