Re: Concrete block method
My pool was built in 82 with steel walls & a vinyl liner. The original liner lasted until 2004 - no kidding. When we replaced the liner, the pool-side of the walls were in very good condition - some minor rust from water under the liner on 2 panels. We had some lines replaced last week and were able to see the dirt-side of the walls and there's no rust at all on them - they still look great. I should also add that the contractor had backfilled crushed bluestone around the perimeter and we let is sit a year before pouring th econcrete so everything would settle. I suspect that the stone aids in draining ground water away from the walls to a degree.
