I hope you have some steel in that floor/roof. Hope the pool doesn't leak.

Harry, a Flat Roof will still have at minimum 1/4" per foot slope and is not
completely level.

I find that the way to =make a flat roof is not to just type 0 in the pitch but to specify and lock the baseline dimension and top dimension as the same figure. (Note: you can only lock one) this is how i've achieved flat roofs

Except that flat roofs don't drain too well.

Why would you want the pool to drain?Except that flat roofs don't drain too well.
I wonder how much a big stainless steel tank would cost to put over a house instead of a roof - seems like a great place for a pool! I'd imagine a pretty good R-value too.
