Building a Swimming Pool

Gary

I would like to build my own swimming pool but I cant find any of the basic
detailed info on how to.
I'm sure once I have the basics I can feel my way around the rest.
So for starters can anyone tell me or point me in a direction to answer
these questions?

how thick to make the concrete shell
how much steel reinforcing to put in the shell
what sort of cement mix to use for the shell
how thick to make the marbelite lining
any other advice tips or tricks

im looking at building approx 8 meter by 3 (or 4) meter pool

any advice or pointers would be appreciated.

thanks
