Why am I missing the bottom step?

You may notice that the bottom step of your pool is not formed out of steel. This is a standard part of the pool construction process. Instead, the steel at the bottom of your pool acts as the rebar for the last step, providing maximum flexibility for the gunite crew to form the bottom step during the gunite application phase.

This approach ensures that the bottom step is seamlessly integrated into the structure of the pool, offering strength and durability while allowing for precise shaping.
