The National Swimming Pool Foundation® (NSPF®) will hold five Genesis University™ classes at this year’s Canadian Pool & Spa Conference & Expo, organized by the Pool & Hot Tub Council of Canada (PHTCC).
The first offering, Construction 202-Reinforced Concrete Pools, is a single-day school with two sections:
- Engineering 103-Structural Engineering
- Construction 233-Best Practices for Shotcrete Construction as designated by the American Shotcrete Association (ASA) and American Concrete Institute (ACI). This module includes the ASA shotcrete nozzle operator education class.
A pair of Society of Watershape DesignersCM (SWDCM) masters, William Drakeley and David Peterson, P.E., will instruct the feature pre-conference class. The SWDCM master designation is the highest level a Genesis University student can achieve. This will be a paid class, separate from the others provided during the conference.
