Project Page: Tung Chung Swimming Pool Tung Chung Swimming Pool This striking public facility is set along the coast and it offers a 50-meter heated indoor-pool and a 25-meter teaching pool. Both pools are suspended concrete and so rely on the Cementaid Everdure Caltite System to deliver permanently DRY performance, maintenance-free, over full design life, and totally without membranes. The overhead structure's aerodynamic shell consists of a double-layer PTFE membrane stretched over a lightweight long-span steel truss structure. This facade serves as a green building envelope that allows natural daylight to illuminate the building. A layer of insulating air trapped between the double-layer membrane helps to regulate the interior climate, and the roof also encourages natural ventilation.
