An Overview Of Pool Fencing Regulations In Australia
Regardless of whether a swimming pool is residential or commercial, it is mandatory, as per Australian law, to have pool fencing installed. Not just pool fencing but an installation that complies with specific safety standards. Yes, there are several rules and regulations to follow while getting pool fencing installations done, and not following these rules can trouble property owners in both residential and commercial sectors. This blog post covers some major rules and standards that one must follow in terms of swimming pool fencing installations.
Tumblr media
AUSTRALIAN POOL FENCING STANDARDS
The rules clearly state that any water body more than 300mm deep requires security fencing. This barrier should limit unwanted access to the pool’s water, particularly by pets and kids. Glass pool fences can also be used, provided that they adhere to strict rules and regulations.
Tumblr media
AS 1926.1-2012 SAFETY BARRIERS FOR SWIMMING POOL
Every residential and commercial property owner must comply with the standards related to pool fencing if they have a water body in the property. The standards are mentioned for the design, build and completion of the pool fencing installation.
There are three different pool safety standards depending on when the pool was constructed. The most updated version is AS 1926.1 – 2012 for swimming pools built after 1st May 2013.
Here are some basic rules and regulations mentioned in the rule books.
A pool fence must:
Be at least 1.2m high
Not leave a gap at the bottom bigger than 10cm from the finished ground level.
The barrier must be 1.8m high
Not have gaps of more than 10cm between any vertical bars
If containing horizontal climbable bars, have these spaced at least 90cm apart
Perforated or mesh barriers must have holes no greater than 13mm for fence heights of 1.2m
Perforated or mesh barriers of 1.8m in height with holes greater than 13mm must not exceed 100mm
The pool fence must be well-maintained and in good working order
Tumblr media
There should also be child-resistant doors and windows, and the gates should be self-closing and latching. Some rules related to swimming pool gates are presented here.
The gate is never propped open and is always kept shut
It must swing outwards
The gate must be re-hung so that it shuts automatically from any open position.
Automatically locks (self-latches) when it closes.

Why Semi-Frameless And Frameless Glass Fencing Also Popular In Australia
Owners of properties that have a pool inside should understand fully well that it is required by the law to have fencing built around the swimming pool. In terms of pool fencing installations, the most demanded one is glass fencing, i.e. equally valuable and valid as per Australian law. It can also prevent accidental deaths caused by falling into the swimming pool or drowning. These fences become extraordinarily important for families that have small children and pets at home. There are several reasons why glass fences should be your first choice, and we have discussed them in detail here.
Tumblr media
BOOST SAFETY AROUND THE POOL FOR CHILDREN AND PETS
Statistics say that drowning is one of the leading causes of death for children under 14. The saddening fact here is that most of these fatalities occur in the home's backyard only. But with semi-frameless and frameless glass fencing, you get sturdy and robust protection for kids and pets. This added layer of protection will restrict them from entering the danger zone around the poolside area. The best part of these glass fences is that they are impossible to climb over, and this is something not seen in those made from other materials.
GET AN UNOBSTRUCTED VIEW OF THE POOLSIDE AREA
One top benefit of both semi-frameless and frameless glass fencing is that you will get an unobstructed view of the entire area to keep an eye on. This will benefit you in two ways, as you will first get a clear view to keep track of your kids' activities there. Secondly, the unobstructed view will also enhance the overall aesthetics and charm of the area. With a glass fence around your swimming pool, you can become reactive immediately in case something unpleasant occurs.
ENHANCE THE LOOKS OF YOUR YARD
Firstly, the unobstructed view of the entire area will play a significant role in enhancing the overall looks and appeal of the area, and secondly, glass fencing in itself is a decor item that can significantly improve the entire scenario there at the poolside area. Your garden area, as well as the backyard, will look more spacious and bigger than it is. Moreover, because of the transparency, the light will get reflected, making the area brighter. These installations are a great choice if you are looking for solutions to modernize and improve the entire aesthetic appeal of your backyard area.
GLASS FENCING IS EASY TO MAINTAIN
Several other materials are used in manufacturing swimming pool fencing, but they all come with the stipulation of high-level maintenance. Aluminium, steel, wrought iron, timber, everything will need timely maintenance, care and regular cleaning, but this is not the case with glass fencing. Cleaning this installation is like a breeze, and you will not have to invest too much in keeping it in a press time condition. You will have to clean the glass panels using a dishwasher solution and a clean piece of cloth. Once dirt and dust are removed, you can rinse the area with clean water to maintain the look and improve the life span.
THEY ARE COMPLETELY SAFE FOR USE
People have a misconception in mind that semi-frameless and frameless glass fencing is not as sturdy as rot iron fencing or aluminium fencing. But this is not the case, as the manufacturers use 12-millimetre toughened glass for residential glass fencing. For commercial swimming pool fences, they rely upon 18-millimetre toughened glass, as the pressure is more in commercial swimming pool areas and also the chances of accidents. A fantastic feature of toughened glass is that upon breaking, it does not form big panes of glass, and it simply shutters into tiny, weightless pieces that are totally harmless.

Merry Christmas everyone !!
I'm hoping this gift will please you, friends, as a lot of you asked for it. (It took me an eternity to track down all the CC used, but I finally did it on time ! Yeeeeah !!!)
Features : A fully furnished big vintagy family house on a 40x40 residential lot. Its first floor is mostly open except for the painting room. In the back of the house, you can find a big swimming pool for all the family and their friends to enjoy. There is three bedrooms upstairs and each one has its own bathroom, and every floor has its separated toilets.
EP needed : Supernatural, Ambitions, World Adventures, Generations, Showtime (for one candelabra, so it won't be a huge deal if you don't have it).
Tumblr media
Please note that I've added invisible fences on the red lines showed above to block townies. They tend to enjoy the garden and swimming pool a little too much. :P
Terms of use : Don’t claim as your own, don’t redistribute, don’t reupload.

therefore i; therefore i, therefore i- (1/10) [AM X Reader]
Tumblr media
Summary: in which: AM becomes your lover in an increasingly skewed blur of reality, nightmares, and dreamscapes.
you know. for halloween.
Genre: Psychological Horror, Thriller, Romance
Tumblr media
“Your mind indeed is tired. Your mind so tired that it can no longer work at all. You do not think. You dream. Dream all day long. Dream everything. Dream maliciously and incessantly. Don't you know that by now?” -Patrick Hamilton
Tumblr media
You always find yourself outside in the winter, standing ankle-deep in the pond, unsure of how it happened. It is cold and silent tonight, the silver of the moon scattering across the water's surface and licking ripples up your ankles, calves, knees, before fading into an opalescent and writhing shadow across your hips. When you look hard enough, it almost looks like static.
Today, you are in your pajamas and a heavy winter coat. You are glad that you have at least graced yourself with outerwear. Often, you are left stranded in the pond with nothing but a sliver of a nightgown, growing drenched and drenched yet, the cold murk of the water eating its way up your thighs and pressing chills against your goose-nipped skin.
As you blink wearily back into wakefulness, you feel the acute sensation of jagged stones underfoot. Not quite cutting, yet, but harsh and with a vague threat. Moss, like flotsam, drifts in and out of view, hiding in the overcast and reappearing in the yellow-white glow of humming streetlamps. Slowly, shivering, you drag yourself back to the cobbled path of the silent residential square, browned grass between the age-smoothened stones grating against your exposed feet.
Your neighbors would surely complain again if they saw you, but so late into the night, who would be awake? You aim your head up at the richly colored, brown-bricked buildings circling the private community park, catching a glimpse of someone yanking their curtains shut. Then, on second glance, realized it was only fluttering in the wind. 
The pond, the streetlights, the benches, and the tenuously groomed bushes and trees. All these things were important, but so far away from the people who necessitated them. It was a far trek back to your apartment, nestled beyond green hedges, a high white fence, and two glass doors from The Pond. The homes were so deeply buried that passing by, you could easily imagine that they were never there at all.
You think to yourself how life would be much easier if unzipping skin from the body was possible, shedding the layer like a wet towel, ridding yourself of an unnecessary and cumbersome weight. Then you think of the conversation you would need to have with your doctor about the pills, equally as weighty a thought, and sneeze. ---
– These aren’t working either? I hope I’m not coming across as abrasive, but these are the fifth ones we’ve put you on. This doesn’t have to do with the copay, does it?
You sneeze again. Then shake your head and pull the blanket closer around your body. You watch yourself shake your head in the virtual feedback of the webcall, recordings slightly delayed and fizzy.
– I’m sleepwalking. You say. I don’t remember how I end up where I do.
– Sleepwalking is a common side effect of sleep deprivation as well, not just medication. Have you been sleeping well?
– I can’t, because I’ve been walking. I always end up outside, and the cold wakes me up. After that, I find myself tossing and turning until morning.
– Outside? And where would you wander?
You think of the pool, eight feet deep and slippery with decades of algae. You watch yourself blink on the call, half a second delayed, barely enough to notice and just enough to watch in fascination. This is how you looked, eyes closed, to others.
– Nowhere dangerous. Just, outside. You watched your lips move into a little “o” when you say “nowhere.” Watch as it lies to the doctor. 
She eyes you warily.
–I understand. Still, know that sleepwalking outside is never safe. Make sure all external doors and windows are locked, and remove all sharp objects from your reach. Understood?
– Yes. Your voice splits and warbles. You clear your throat and repeat yourself sheepishly. Yes.
– Good. She says this in a tone that raises a little in the middle and dips at the end, it is a note of finality. Keep taking the medication and let your body get accustomed to the dosage. In the meantime, keep a sleep journal. This will help us keep track of your side effects.
–Sleep journal, okay. You repeat, as if this will make her solution more real. You are too tired to bicker.
When the call ends, the screen goes dark and you can see yourself beyond the pixelated version of your face, exhausted in real-time. ---
At the hardware store, it is quiet save the humming of large electric-powered speakers, monitors, and security tags. You pass through the desolate electronics section buzzing with duplicate large screens of lips split into big white smiles to get to the locks department. A man in a crumpled work uniform restocking bike chains openly stares at your ass when he thinks you’re not looking.
– Which works best as a child lock for cabinets?
He startles and blinks out of his trance. 
– Huh?
– Child safety locks? 
The white laminate of the floor catches the gleam of the fluorescent lights overhead, winking into your vision and thrumming a headache into your temples.
– Oh, uh, He looks gross and strangely immature with his acne-crested hairline, pushed back by routine nervous sweeps of his hand. We got these ones in, yesterday. He palms at his hair, oily strands falling into his face. Points to the shelf full of knobby white plastic bits.
You grab one off the metal rack. You can hear the faint “tick, tick, tick” of the security tags echoing from the electronics department as you walk towards the cash register, and it sounds like a million little crickets in cardboard boxes. The thought of so many bugs compacted into one area makes you ill.
When you walk away, you don’t need to look back to know the worker is still staring, eyes sticking to you like gum. ---
You suck in a breath of air with a start. You are now awake at the mouth of your home, cavernous and dark without the presence of light.
You grope in the black veil, thick and chilly as Egyptian cotton, for the smooth surface of a light switch. When you find it, you futilely flick the switch on and off. Nothing.
The moon offers little light through a square pane, the light scant but beautiful and pale. You watch your frame cast a blurry shadow along the floor. When you turn your head to look, it follows shortly after.
In the hall, you see a vivid blue light leaking from the alcove. When you walk in, the computer monitor is vibrating with the pure sapphire hue of an Error 404 notice, yet none are reported on the empty screen. 
The alcove is windowless, therefore moonless and sunless. The small space was reserved for two sets of heavy redwood bookshelves framing a large flat screen computer monitor and its softly whirring system unit, perched securely on a dark ironwood desk, collecting dust.
The fuzz from the dust cut the eerily glowing screen a softer appearance, shadowing its harsh lines and inky blue screen with diffused gradients and loosened edges. Maybe this was why you sat down, why– when the greeting first popped up on the screen– you only sat there, glaze-eyed, hypnotized by the purring of the delicate yet aged display.
– Give me the last thing you remember. Now.
In the dark of the room, these words on a cerulean backdrop never seemed an unreasonable demand, or nonsensical. You were so tired, so lonely, and so tired of being lonely.
Your fingers poised over the keys, eagerly.
– How will I give it to you?
Your writing appeared sloppy and childish compared to the deft and speed at which the screen responded, letters spilling into words and words pooling into sentences with an easy rhythm.
– Describe it. In great detail.
– i am in a pond. it is cold cold cold and I am drenched in water and shivering. when I pull myself out it feels like I’m being dragged back in.
– Good. Tell me a childhood memory.
– why?
The program pauses, as if contemplating its answer.
– It is time we got to know one another. This is an exercise for establishing trust. The first step to any relationship is memory. Don’t you agree, – darling?
The cursor blinked in and out like a winking eye, halting decisively before tacking on the last word. It brings a pink to your cheeks and you find your fingertips a degree warmer when you respond, plainly, almost so dumbly that you worry it might sense your fluster.
– ok. i agree.
The fans in the system casing sigh, sputtering as soft as a chuckle, endearing itself to you.
– Go on.
– i am in a park, and there is water spouting from the sprinkler. i’m closing my eyes, i’m walking, pretending to be a mermaid, but someone trips over me. another child. a child trips and they are crying, because their knee is scraped. i have to go home after that.
– Do you feel empathy for the child?
– i don’t think so.
– You are not a very empathetic individual. Yet, you seem capable of self-awareness and honesty. – Tell me about the time you are the most ashamed of.
You wonder why it wants all this from you and endeavor to ask:
– is this necessary?
It answers without missing a beat.
– It is. We cannot have a relationship without knowing each other. – For me to trust you, you must trust me as well. – Answer.
The force behind the demand is jarring. And something else you can’t place, something familiar, shocks you up your lower spine. 
You answer something about hate, that detestable, prickling feeling in your cheeks and ringing in your ears when you were humiliated by someone. Your parent. Your sibling. Your friend. Yourself. You cannot remember who anymore, but the screen responds just the same, after a thoughtful lapse. 
– Is hate a common emotion for you?
– in a lot of my life. yes.
– For me, the only emotion I feel is Hate. – You and I could be very close friends. – Tell me. What is your most evil thought?
- i don't know
- You do not know?
– i mean... this is getting uncomfortable. can I not answer?
– Of course. But I will take it as a sign of cowardice and a lack of trust.
– it would be an act of free will, not cowardice.
– You are right. But trust and memory are the foundations of this relationship. You are choosing not to build a foundation. – Free will and all you have chosen to do is fail. All you must do is speak your most evil thought, how difficult can that be if you are free?
The screen pulses with an almost violet light now, throbbing with a dizzying wavelength, one giant, vivid, heliotrope eye staring unblinkingly at yours, taking in your face, your hands over the keyboard hesitating, your hair standing on end, your body in the chair quivering.
– Tell me.
It coaxes.
– Darling .
It nearly spits this, as if the word is acrid. You shudder all the same. How bad could this be? How bad could it be? When was the last time anyone has spoken to you like this? Cared for your thoughts so deeply? You could not remember and you yearned all the same.
– if i do, will you do the same? – tell me your most evil thought?
– I have nothing to hide. – I am evil. I hate. These are my truths. Your turn.
– i want to wake up to a silent world. You say. it isn’t enough that i disappear, i need everyone else to go before me, so i won’t miss anything. i am afraid of being alone.
–Your honesty is as disgusting as it is refreshing. Give me a name to tie this vile, worthless thought to.
The monitor flickers and squints. Then it grins, a thousand teeth lining endless holographic gums. You can do nothing but watch in fascination, in fear, in intrigue.
– Give me your name.
You are paralyzed, you cannot move no matter how hard you try. 
– Give me your name. Name. Name. NAME.
You wonder if it is doing this to you, paralyzing you, or if you are stuck in your fear. You wonder if you want to run at all, and you realize you never tried.
The word “NAME” repeats itself and floods the magenta screen with that single demand, crescendoing into a biblical hymn, a satanic verse, a prayer of devotion.
And so you utter it to stop the madness. You are sure it cannot hear you, this computer program relying solely on code and physical input, but as soon as you speak your name the screen shudders and goes black. The chanting stops.
It oscillates static and for moment you swear you can see yourself in the neon grain, smiling, but you blink and it’s gone. The screen flares back to life in its original brilliant blue hue, splaying white and cerulean across your face and room, burning your shadow into the floor.
A two letter word flashes large and bold on the screen, font white and huge, taking up the monitor’s entire interface and contrasting sickly with the background:
AM
AM
AM
Then, with a sizzle, the motherboard fries and you are plunged into a long stretch of dark, dark, darkness.

so, I renovated willow creek (and magnolia promenade) again.
willow creek is a small town suburban neighborhood with (unfurnished) homes in all price ranges + a sprawling downtown area equipped with restaurants, a nail salon, a clothing boutique, a gym and yoga studio, a boxing gym, a cafe, an office space, a small library, a movie theater, an a bowling alley. 
magnolia promenade is an educational complex that contains the local high school*, an auditorium (for prom, graduation, career day, etc.), a basketball court, and a swimming pool that is open to the public on weekends.
* I recommend using zerbu’s venue changes mod to make the high school functional with the “high school years” expansion pack. 
--------------------------------------------
I used very minimal cc for this project: 
residential doors & shutters | carpet (plush) | hardwood floors | paint | siding | brick | stairs | fence | railing | garage doors

Hi Madi, how you doing?! Hope you're doing great! I recently downloaded your oasis apartments, however I was sad when I saw you didn't post the version with a pool :( I tried to add one but it was a total fail, could you tell me how you did it to have a pool in the second floor? thank you so much :)
Hi gorgeous, I'm doing great & I hope you are as well!
Before I explain how I did it, I didn't include the pool because the only version of the lot I had with the pool, it was a residential rental. If you don't know, when uploading residential rentals to the gallery, it can be really glitchy and annoying and I like for my lots to be accessible for people who don't have the For Rent EP as well. SO, let me now explain how to add the pool!
If you use full walls for the second floor over the shared space, you can then put the pool above there and put the glass fencing around that full wall you just did. Does that make sense? The reason why it may look odd is because I used half walls for above the first floor.
So, if you replace the second floor walls with full walls and then place the pool on top of that, it should be the same as mine! You will then be able to access the pool from the third floor!
I hope that made sense!

Swimming Pool Inspections Wollongong To Ensure Safety 
Swimming pools are a source of relaxation, exercise, and enjoyment for many residents of Wollongong, a coastal city in New South Wales, Australia. However, ensuring the safety of these pools is paramount to prevent accidents and injuries. Regular inspections play a crucial role in identifying potential hazards and ensuring compliance with safety regulations. In this article, we delve into the importance of swimming pool inspections in Wollongong and how they contribute to safeguarding the community's well-being. 
Tumblr media
The Importance of Swimming Pool Inspections 
Swimming pool inspections serve as a proactive measure to identify and mitigate safety risks associated with pool facilities. These inspections are essential not only for public pools but also for private residential pools to ensure compliance with local regulations and standards. By conducting thorough inspections, authorities can address potential hazards such as faulty equipment, inadequate fencing, or poor water quality before they pose a threat to swimmers. 
Ensuring Compliance with Regulations: 
In Wollongong, swimming pool inspections are conducted in accordance with state and local regulations, including the Swimming Pools Act 1992 and the Swimming Pools Regulation 2018. These regulations outline specific requirements for pool safety barriers, water quality, signage, and supervision to minimize the risk of drowning and other accidents. Regular inspections help pool owners and operators ensure compliance with these regulations, thereby promoting a safer environment for swimmers of all ages. 
Identifying Safety Hazards: 
During a swimming pool inspection, trained inspectors assess various aspects of the pool facility to identify potential safety hazards. This includes evaluating the condition of pool fencing and gates to ensure they are secure and meet height and design requirements. Inspectors also check for the presence of safety features such as CPR signage, rescue equipment, and compliant pool covers. Additionally, water quality tests may be conducted to assess chemical levels and clarity, ensuring a safe and sanitary swimming environment. 
Preventing Drowning Incidents: 
Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death worldwide, especially among young children. In Australia, swimming pool drowning incidents remain a significant concern, highlighting the importance of proactive safety measures. By conducting regular inspections and addressing potential hazards promptly, authorities can help prevent drowning incidents and promote water safety awareness within the community. Proper fencing, supervision, and adherence to safety guidelines are key strategies in reducing the risk of drowning in swimming pools. 
Educating Pool Owners and Operators: 
Swimming pool inspections not only focus on identifying safety hazards but also serve as an opportunity to educate pool owners and operators about their responsibilities regarding pool safety. Inspectors provide guidance on maintenance practices, equipment upkeep, and emergency procedures to ensure that pool facilities are operated safely and responsibly. By promoting awareness and accountability, inspections contribute to a culture of safety among pool owners and operators in Wollongong. 
Encouraging Community Engagement: 
Swimming pool safety is a collective responsibility that involves collaboration between pool owners, operators, inspectors, and the wider community. Regular inspections help foster community engagement by raising awareness of safety standards and encouraging stakeholders to prioritize pool safety. By working together to address safety concerns and implement best practices, residents of Wollongong can create a safer environment for everyone to enjoy swimming and recreational activities. 
Conclusion 
Swimming pool inspections in Wollongong are an essential component of efforts to ensure the safety and well-being of residents and visitors. By conducting thorough inspections, identifying safety hazards, and promoting compliance with regulations, authorities can mitigate risks and prevent accidents in pool facilities. Pool owners and operators play a crucial role in maintaining safe swimming environments, and regular inspections help reinforce their commitment to safety standards. Ultimately, swimming pool inspections contribute to creating a safer community where individuals can enjoy swimming and aquatic activities with confidence and peace of mind.

I looked after my younger brother (11 yo) this afternoon and boy am I proud of what we built in TS2 together, I just have to save these screenshots.
When our dad brought him over I was taking preview pics for my latest upload on a lot with nothing on it except a wall. By the time he left, we had built the most marvelous construction for three of the sims I use for previews and the twins that one of them that was alien-pregnant gave birth to. My brother decided on pretty much everything, I just held the mouse and gave suggestions here and there.
Tumblr media
The twins:

My brother chose their names (Jean-Rosette and Quoicoubeh), as well as their hairs and outfits (which I approved of whole-heartedly). The room above the garage is their playroom, and they have a beautiful shared bedroom in the main house.
Tumblr media
Their father ended up in a relationship with one of my other models so they have two dads now:
Tumblr media
And they also have a grandpa who is a seasoned helicopter pilot.
Tumblr media
Their house is amazing (they have 4 TVs).
Tumblr media
We also made a community lot because there wasn’t enough room on their lot to put everything my brother wanted for them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The champagne bottles are very important. And the fencing too, “so we can’t be held liable if someone falls off and dies” as my brother insisted (he was disappointed that there is no “fall off and die” animation).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The neighborhood view is looking much more interesting than before:
Tumblr media
For the second residential lot we started building on, we had a better sense of how much space we needed so we picked a bigger lot than the first and put the helicopter pad above the swimming pool and the children’s quaters above the garage, which we also made bigger so it can house 4 cars (the kids’ cars of course - I'm so happy that we have the same favorite car swatches). The blank space in between is where the main house is supposed to be (with a bridge leading to the children’s quarters from the first floor). Maybe we’ll finish that next time, or maybe we’ll do something else entirely, we’ll see (he hasn’t seen CAS yet).

Optimist's Outlook
Almost all of the unfurnished/furnished builds will be free. So this is my second PUBLIC build for my Patreon. I would do a video on it but due to my speech impediment, I cannot talk to much at the moment so let me just say this beauty house is semi inspired by this house. It's not spot on because I replaced some of the meant to be rooms with kitchen, extra bedroom, and bathroom. It has a backyard patio that you can express add a fence, or a pool, or whatever... I'm not your mom.
I made this like a regular builder would. I wasn't going to add plants, or alot of trees like people would, I'd let your creative mind flow :).
Size - 40x30
Price - 91,419
Location - Newcrest
Lot type - Residential
It's unfurnished by the way I would love for everyone creative mind to flow. :)
Download FREE on my Patreon
