Скачать или смотреть Tilt-Up Construction: The Process of Erecting a Tilt-Up Building Explained

There are many ways to build a commercial building or home these days, but tilt-up construction through Tilt Wall offers the greatest benefits.

This specialized process can be broken down into 6 distinct steps:

1. Site Preparation & Pouring the Foundation Slab
All required materials and equipment are gathered for the job. Next, the concrete floor slab is poured.

2. Forming of Tilt-Up Wall Panels and Adding Formliners
The crew assembles the panel forms on the floor slab. The panel forms serve as molds for the concrete. Each form provides the panel’s exact shape and size as well as openings for doors and windows

3. Panel Reinforcement and Installation of Lifting Inserts & Embeds
Up next, workers tie in the steel grid to reinforce bars into each form. This part of the process gives the panels additional structural integrity. Workers also install inserts and embeds, which will be used to lift the panels later

4. Pouring Concrete Tilt-Up Panels & Adding Insulation
Concrete is poured into the prepared forms to create the panels. Sandwich Insulation is also encased into each building panel. To give tilt-up structures true edge-to-edge insulation.

5. Lifting Concrete Panels in Place
The concrete panels are given time to solidify; The crew then connects the panels to a crane.
The crane then lifts the panels from the floor slab into position. From here, the workers will connect the panel’s braces to the slab. The crew moves to the next panel and repeats this process until all panels are tilted up and secure.

6. Panel Finishings & Caulking Joints
During the last step of the process, the building begins to look like a finished product. Exterior wall finishes, take place, and the joints are also caulked to prevent water penetration
