What Is Tilt-Up?

Tilt-Up is a shell construction method in which load-bearing concrete wall panels are cast horizontally on-site and then tilted up into position by crane. Once tilted into place, each concrete panel locks in all the beauty and strength that architects and engineers designed.

Tilt-Up is quicker than conventional construction methods. Once on site, you can have a building up in as little as four months. The method produces a very clean, attractive look which is extremely adaptable to a wide variety of commercial building needs.

While speed and adaptability are its main advantages, tilt-up has numerous other advantages as well. Durability, longevity, low maintenance, excellent weather resistance, energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness and architectural appeal.

Nationwide, over 15% of all industrial buildings are Tilt-Up, ranging in size from 5,000 to over 1.5 million square feet. Tilt-Up is being used for everything from traditional warehouse and industrial facilities to office buildings, churches, movie theaters, schools and recreation centers. More than 10,000 buildings enclosing more than 650 million square feet of structure are now constructed each year using the tilt-up method.
