I am not an engineer but I have built igloos, sheds, build walls and loads of other things and when Somchai has put in the hole, for about $100, then quite where the other million goes I will never know. I guess a few weekends on google would bring me to Master Craftsman level in Thailand. At least you would know the theory and let's face it, it is not rocket science is it ? It is a hole in the ground which operates like a giant bath jacuzzi bath.
Naive thinking at best, hope you don't have any water table to deal with for just one example...Another would be the opposite which is a common problem here and that would be too much muck to support the pools weight, tell me how you'd handle either one of those scenarios? Throw in a slope away from the pool and proper shoring, how about proper leveling? I could go on and then get into equipment, proper flow for optimum pool filtration, turnover rates and cleanliness, safeties etc. but.......................... Silly people you're not changing a flat tire...
