Safari stocks large quantities of S12 steel for inground concrete pool construction. S12 Poolsteel is a ductile steel with a deformed (ribbed) profile that is specifically designed for concrete swimming pools. It is easy to bend on site, making it ideal for shaping the steel to suit the curved requirements of modern day pools.

Pool steel controls cracking and ensures the strength of the pool structure, whilst providing maximum design flexibility. Stocked in 6m lengths.

• High-strength 250S Grade soft deformed reinforcing steel for concrete

• Not heat tempered to allow for easy bending on-site to design requirements

• S12 x 6m Available for immediate delivery in full tonne bundles or individual lengths.

Applications

S12 pool reinforcing bar is primarily used to form the steel reinforcement framework within in-ground concrete swimming pools. Its ductility makes it suitable for following engineered pool designs incorporating:

• Curved pool walls and floors

• Steps, benches and landings

• Spas and other formed features

• Straight and free-form concrete pool shells

The reinforcing layout, bar spacing, laps, concrete cover and any additional reinforcement must always follow the project’s engineering drawings and specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is S12 pool steel?

S12 pool steel is a 12mm deformed reinforcing bar used for reinforced concrete swimming pools. It is selected for its ductility and ability to follow curved and detailed pool profiles.

What is the difference between S12 pool steel and N12 reinforcing bar?

They are different reinforcing products with different mechanical properties. S12 pool bar is used where greater ductility and easier on-site shaping are required. They should not be substituted for one another unless approved by the project engineer.

Can S12 pool steel be bent on site?

S12 pool steel is designed to be more readily shaped on site than conventional N-grade reinforcing bar. All bending, bar placement and reinforcement detailing must follow the engineering drawings and applicable requirements.

What lengths does Safari stock?

Safari supplies S12 pool steel in 6m lengths. It can be ordered by individual length or in full-tonne bundles.

How much pool steel do I need?

The quantity, spacing, laps and placement should be taken from the structural engineering drawings for the pool. Send your required quantities to Safari for a supply and delivery quote.
