Asked by Wiki User

As long as it is architectural or house paint, you can use it in a bathroom. However, an exterior grade paint will not wash or scrub as well as a paint formulated for interior use so a 100% acrylic interior paint in an eggshell or glossier sheen would be recommended.

What are the masonry beams?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A masonry beam is more often called a "bond beam." This is where a block is cut or manufactured with a slot to lay down one or two pieces of rebar down inside the block horizontally. The blocks are filled with grout and this adds horizontal strength to the wall by tying the vertical cells that are filled with grout to the horizontal cells that are filled with grout, creating a grid making the wall much stronger.

Does a swimming pool have gravity?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Every thing exists under the same laws of Gravity. many things seem lighter in a swimming pool because they are relatively lighter in a heavy medium like water rather the light medium like air. Nearly every thing falls to the ground in air. however there are a lot of things that float or go up in water because they are lighter then water. this rule applies to every thing even things that sink.

How do you rebar swimming pool?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Some like to refer to the finished product as a woven basket of rebar, but it is not truly an over/under installation as the name suggests.

An industry standard, # 3 rebar (# 3 referring to the diameter of the bar) is placed on 12" centers to create a mat of steel reinforcement. This is common practice for pool shells placed in stable soil without additional vectors of stress/weight. When non-typical vectors are present to act on the strucutral integrity of the pool shell, the reinforcement sizes and the spacing can be change to provide additional strength to the concrete structure.
