About this asset

Designed for competition aquatic facilities, this swimming pool starting block Revit family features an angled launch platform on a tubular metal frame. The model represents a competition-style swimming pool starting platform constructed with a durable tubular stainless steel frame. An inclined launch platform is topped with a blue non-slip tread surface to provide realistic swimmer footing. Beneath the forward cantilever, an integrated horizontal start handle supports backstroke starts, while diagonal bracing struts anchor the assembly firmly back to the vertical deck mounting posts. An intermediate rear step bar facilitates platform mounting from the pool deck. The simplified solid geometry provides clean silhouettes in both hidden-line technical orthographics and shaded presentation views.

The download is a 317 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this RFA family directly into Revit project templates for recreation and sports coordination. Position the starting block along the finished pool coping edge, aligning the central axis with pool lane markings. The lightweight file size ensures rapid loading and minimal impact on overall model performance during large-scale aquatic centre documentation and coordination reviews.

Suited for municipal aquatic centres, competition natatoriums, school sports complexes, and private club lap pools, this asset equips competition pool deck layouts during design development and construction documentation phases. It coordinates accurately alongside pool lane ropes, pool coping, lane float anchors, timing equipment, and deck drainage grates. Specifiers searching for pool specialty equipment, competition starting platforms, or commercial swimming pool fixtures can populate lane layouts rapidly across competitive swimming venues.
