Exploring Tilt-Up Construction: Erecting Walls Efficiently | September 04 2024, 20:20

Driving past a construction site. In the photo — the process of erecting walls using a method called panel lifting or tilt-up construction. This method is widely used in the construction of industrial buildings, warehouses, and shopping centers. The essence is that reinforced concrete panels are cast horizontally on the construction site, and then raised to a vertical position using a crane. The braces are removed later, once other structural elements are assembled. I’ve only seen this in the USA.
