Someone forgot the fact water is heavy. I read of this happening to a motel in Nebraska a lot of yrs ago. The engineer forgot to add in the water weight. Luckily this was caught before they filled the pool.

Article said it was 75 ft long. Guessing 12 ft wide by 5 ft deep, the water would weigh around 280,000 llb.
