what type of steel for an indoor pool???
on a multi-story hotel with an indoor swimming pool i use steel framing to support the floor above. i usually specify for galvanized steel framing. just wondering what everyone else uses / recommends - galvanized, stainless, something else?
also, what structural steel members do you specify to be treated for the pool environment - beams over head, adjacent columns, etc? all steel would be covered, but only with a moisture resistant drywall.
i require galvanized steel for overhead steel including bracing as you do. columns are usually not in the same room as the pool.
heavily galvanized steel. all surfaces should be protected, including fasteners. i have inspected the framing for several pool houses and the chlorinated water vapors cause considerable corrosion to all steel. the galvanizing won't stop the corrosion, but will slow it down.
epoxy paint on all steel surfaces adjacent to pool atmosphere will increase the life of the components.
