Tilt-wall or tilt-up construction is currently widely used in commercial and industrial structures, as well as in contemporary warehouses, call centers, distribution centers, retail establishments, office and storage buildings, and other facilities.
The concept of tilt-up construction is straightforward. Horizontal concrete walls are formed on the ground or a slab. Each wall panel is poured into a custom wooden form, usually built on-site, with footings and roofing supports. The wall panels are lifted into place by crane after the concrete has cured and secured with temporary braces. The exterior is now ready to be finished with various paints, textures, and stains.
