Permanent form assembly and method for swimming pool user support structures

A permanent form assembly for creating and forming swimming pool user support structures within a swimming pool, the permanent assembly comprising:

• one or more of a vertical elongated support having a pool wall flange extending laterally from the vertical support and fixedly attached to one of a pool wall or a support brace;
• one or more of a lateral brace having a longitudinal brace body, a vertical support end connected to the vertical elongated support and a riser support end wherein the lateral brace extends laterally from the pool wall;
• and
• a plurality of support structure risers, each having a riser inside surface, a smooth riser outside surface, a riser first end, and a riser second end, the riser first end fixedly attached to the riser support end of the lateral brace and the riser second end fixedly attached to one of a riser first end of an adjacent support structure riser, the pool wall or a riser outside surface of another support structure riser, wherein the one or more of the vertical elongated support, the one or more of the lateral brace and the riser inside surface form a volume that contains the one or more of the vertical elongated support, the one or more of the lateral brace and the riser inside surface, the volume adapted for receiving a filler within the volume to form a smooth swimming pool user support structure having a user support platform over which a pool liner is disposed.

A permanent swimming pool user support structure within a swimming pool, the user support structure comprising:

• one or more of a vertical elongated support having a pool wall flange extending laterally from the vertical support and fixedly attached to one of a pool wall or a support brace;
• one or more of a lateral brace having a longitudinal brace body, a vertical support end connected to the vertical elongated support and a riser support end wherein the lateral brace extends laterally from the pool wall;
• a plurality of support structure risers, each having a riser inside surface, a riser outside surface, a riser first end, and a riser second end, the riser first end fixedly attached to the riser support end of the lateral brace and the riser second end fixedly attached to one of a riser first end of an adjacent support structure riser, the pool wall or a riser outside surface of another support structure riser;
• and
• a filler disposed within a volume created by the plurality of support structure risers, the one or more of a lateral brace and the one or more of a vertical elongated support wherein an exposed portion of the filler is concrete and forms one or more of a user support platform over which a pool liner is disposed.
