Possible anyway, but if you need to rebuild the roof significantly and at a reasonable cost, you might need to reconsider.
If you continue with the "support in the middle" idea, it's really only at the end of the movement when the long side needs to get up on the edge that extra support is needed. Perhaps it's possible to make a smaller permanent support in the form of a small ramp that elevates the bending point just as it reaches the edge. This could be combined with stiffening the side to reduce bending.
The simplest solution might be to add another track in the middle of the cover and a detachable beam over the center of the pool. Maybe an aluminum profile for weather resistance/low weight.
Another option is to let a modified jack with wheels (12v) lift the beam so that it comes over the edge of the pool.
Have some solutions like that with linear actuators but since 8.4M is hanging in the air over the pool, that won't work. It starts to sag long before it reaches the edge of the pool.
That sounds like the absolute simplest... but maybe not the more elegant solution.
Before the roof is pulled over, TS lays out a profile (a ramp) that the wheels in the middle can roll on.
The profile should be as rigid as possible, but if you use a horizontal U-profile, the outer support beam will be pulled over the pool edge where it currently touches.
But you can position it higher up in the construction on the roof against a decking board, for example. At some point, it will make contact, and if you can use a jack or an actuator 5 cm before that.
So it's hanging in the air but moves toward the edge. When it reaches the edge, it makes contact, but on the inside of the support beam, you send down an actuator with wheels that pushes up the support beam.
Then there are 2 pieces of 4M flat iron (8*1 cm that are tightly tensioned to lift the pool deck over the edge. Plus 4 pieces of 120*45 beams that are also tensioned. Helps a little but still have about 3 cm to lift up.
I believe more in the stainless steel solution. Once I've sorted out the budget... Stainless steel or acid-proof. Big price difference though.
no. But having something over the pool when you're swimming is not exactly desirable. However, there are small pieces on the free part where the wheels should rest. Once the deck comes up on the edge of the pool.
I'm completely sure it's a pure load-bearing issue. It hasn't been free, so now I need to know how to do it. The formula I received was really great! Now I just need to learn it and see if I can increase the thickness or height of the stainless material to reduce the deflection from 28 mm in the middle to a maximum of 5 mm or preferably 0 mm. Maybe remove the frame (195*45) and replace it with stainless steel.
I'm pretty sharp at business economics but totally useless at structural calculations for load-bearing.
My thought was that with a wheelbase in the middle that goes over the pool, you would be able to use the same cover you have today. You should be able to lift the wheel track into place and lay it over the pool before pulling the cover over. I spontaneously think that a u-beam would be the best.
It should absolutely not be there when you're swimming. The neighbors never need to see it
...but if price is not a factor, it can definitely be solved with a stainless steel beam.

Here's a beam that's about a third of what you need:

Eh… Sorry if I seemed rude. Of course, price is a factor, but if it's around 30K, it's just a matter of biting the bullet and going for it.
I do most things via the app, so going out to lay a 4M beam over the pool when the deck needs to be closed feels meh. I would prefer to fix it so it works as it should.
