15m x 35m Modular Pool Enclosure Project

When Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre required a temporary swimming pool enclosure over the existing children’s pool at Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre in Lilyfield, maintaining community access while delivering a safe, compliant structure was the priority.

Australian Temporary Structures delivered a 15m x 35m modular structure on 3-metre legs, providing a full turnkey rental and installation solution engineered specifically for aquatic conditions.

The Challenge

The project required a temporary enclosure that would:

Be installed over an operational children’s pool

Maintain public access during works

Meet strict WHS and compliance requirements

Provide safe and weather-protected swimming conditions

Be delivered and installed within a compressed timeframe

Additionally, the removal of the existing structure and coordination with council stakeholders required careful project staging and site management.

The Solution: Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre

ATS supplied a 15m x 35m structure featuring:
3m leg height configuration
Premium aluminium frame system
Stainless steel fittings
Single-skin Ferrari 702 block-out PVC roof membrane
Flame-retardant roof compliant with DIN 4102 B1, M2, BS 5438/7837 and USA NFPA 701
ISO panel insulated wall system
4 glass double doors with panic hardware
Protective door canopies

The modular enclosure provided reliable weather protection while maintaining a bright internal environment suited to aquatic use.

Turnkey Installation Program

ATS delivered a complete turnkey solution including freight, installation, engineering documentation, WHS manuals and technical specifications.

The seven-day installation program included:

Site unloading and temporary fencing
Frame assembly and anchoring
Structural erection using all-terrain forklift and boom
Roof and wall installation
Internal baffles and service integration
Final commissioning and sign-off

By manufacturing components off-site and deploying an experienced installation team, ATS ensured the structure was operational within one week.

Project Outcome

Rapid seven-day installation
Safe and compliant aquatic enclosure
Maintained community swimming access
Engineered Premium Series aluminium system
Full turnkey delivery including documentation and project management

The Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre project demonstrates how modular structures provide fast, reliable and cost-effective solutions for councils requiring temporary or interim aquatic infrastructure.

Why Modular for Council Aquatic Projects?

Traditional construction can be costly and time-intensive. Modular enclosures offer:

Reduced installation time
Minimal site disruption
Engineered compliance
Flexible rental or purchase options
Scalable systems in 5m bays
Proven performance in aquatic environments

For councils managing redevelopments, upgrades or emergency replacements, modular structures provide the flexibility required to maintain service continuity.
