Composite pool walls for vinyl liner pools are better in that they are 100% non-corrosive while still supplying the same amount of strength as a steel wall pool. While nature ensures that steel WILL rust over a period of time, the increasingly popular salt generators have accelerated this process. And why is rusting panels bad? Think of your vinyl liner moving up and down on a rusted piece of steel.

Why is a steel wall pool better than a concrete wall pool?

All depends on what you are looking for and how much you have to spend. Concrete pools are usually considered the "high-end" pool but installation takes a long time and maintenance and repair are costly. Steel pools, or I'm assuming you're referring the vinyl liner pools, are a good, cost efficient option. Though, if you want to extend the life span of your pool, check out the other building materials used for vinyl liner pools.. such as Fiber Reinforced Composite Materials.


What are the pros and cons of having a wooden frame swimming pool as opposed to a steel or concrete frame?

In above ground models, wood is much better than steel. If you "rough house" in a steel pool, you potentially could knock it down. It you run into it with a bike or lawn tractor you will likely know it down. A wood pool you could back your car into and not know it down. Wood you probably need to treat every 3 years, steel you don't, but it will rust. I don't have info on concrete.
