Design-build - the fast delivery system for your project where building construction proceeds while the design is developed, speeding completion. Tilt-Up lends itself to this process because wall panel construction can proceed while the rest of the building is designed.
You'll get earlier occupancy - when you decide to build, you want to proceed quickly. With Tilt-Up, you get compression of disciplines - many phases are completed simultaneously. Therefore, you can move into your building sooner.
Assembly line prefabrication - load-bearing reinforced concrete wall panels are cast horizontally on the floor slab or a casting slab, and are tilted up into their final vertical position with high-capacity mobile cranes. The entire process is designed for efficiency and speed of erection.
Trades get in sooner - because the floor slab is poured first, the other trades can work sooner and in a better work environment, which saves time and money.
Materials and labor are more readily available - site-cast Tilt-Up uses ready mixed concrete usually available near the job site. Contractors use local labor.
