Here's the details. Inground vinyl liner pool with metal walls. Pool deck will be poured concrete. Concrete guy lays wire mesh grid to be under deck. What are my bonding requirements? The changes lately and the wording in the code confuse me.
In the past we ran #8 bare solid around the pool, bonded to the mesh in 4 spots equally located around pool, hit the pool frame with a lug in 1 location, ladder and rail cups, and back to equipment pad (pump, heater). We would do this in one continuous piece. We've never been failed on it, but my question is are we over doing it in any way? Just looking to decrease time and materials if it is possible. Thanks guys
