Filling in an indoor swimming pool
Filling in an indoor swimming pool
(OP)
I am wondering about the logistics of filling in an indoor swimming pool, and then covering it in some form of flooring to utilise the space as an extra room. I would assume that sand would be the best material to use to fill it. I was also thinking of possibly laying a floor system directly over the sand. Has anyone dealt with anything like this before?

If the span is not too large you could simply place a wood frame floor over the pool. Intermediate supports could be used as necessary. The void created could be used as a basement.
