An in-ground swimming pool having a poured concrete bottom, an upstanding wall composed of a series of vertically corrugated metal panels bonded to the bottom, and means which provides coping around the top of the wall. The wall is bonded to the bottom by means of an epoxy resin which is applied along the lower margin of the wall and in a continuous recess which is formed in the periphery of the bottom during pouring and which has a layer of deformable leveling material in its base for supporting the wall. The leveling material permits the wall to be leveled before being permanently bonded to the bottom by the epoxy. The coping means may be provided with an upwardly open water channel at water level; in which case, a layer of epoxy resin is disposed between the top of the wall and the underside of the coping. The channel coping is supported on a series of horizontally disposed members which are vertically adjustable by means of threaded fasteners to enable the position of the coping to be adjusted before a layer of concrete is poured therearound to effect permanent installation of the coping in the ground.
