After selecting a location for the spa pool, it is necessary to build a base that will be strong enough to support the weight of the pool, water and occupants.

This question makes no sence!!! If you have groundwater and want to build an inground pool you need to install a "well point". a Well point is a plumbing line which runs underground and pumps out "ground water" under the pool. Once the pool is filled you do not need to worry about the ground water as much. the water in the pool pushes OUT as ground water pushes in.
