Pool Cracks

[Wes]

I filled my new pool with water a few days before Labor Day.

The pool has an inside dimension of 18 ft X 40 ft. The contiguous bond beam is 24 inch wide.

I noticed a few seemingly superficial cracks on the coping. However, one of the cracks seems a bit more concerning. Not surprinsgly this crack is almost exactly mid-length of the pool. The crack goes all the way through the beam and is now evident in the plaster extending 6 to 8 inches below the WL (and may be still growing).

There are corresponding and apparently superficial cracks on the opposite side.

My pool builder seems to be a responsible one and says he will fix the situation.

What would y'all say would be the fair and proper remedy?

Thanks,
