Hi, and thanks in advance for the help with my question, and for all the great information I've found at TFP.
So the formula for average depth is pretty simple - Deep end depth - Shallow end depth divided by two. The part I don't understand is how this formula accounts for the slope on the sidewalls of the deep end. Like most pools, my pool has a moderate slope from the shallow to the deep end (east-west), but it also has steep sloping surfaces on the sidewalls (north side and south side) that do not have an equivalent feature in the shallow end. The white lines in the attached image are a good representation of what I'm referring to. All in put is welcome and will be read. Thanks!
