Tilt-up concrete construction is exactly what it sounds like. Concrete panels are built flat on the ground (or, rather, on a concrete slab on the ground) then tilted vertically to form a wall. It's really that simple-but, of course, it ends up being much more complex as we add ...
Time to tilt-up: the possibilities of tilt-up concrete walls for use in new homes have only begun to be explored--but the field is ripe for innovation.Power, Matthew

E Sauter - 《Design Cost Data》 被引量: 0发表: 2006年 Tilt-up - 10 reasons to specify tilt-up concrete today According to the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), there are 21,640 new car dealerships in the United States. While this is an impressive number, many owners are ...
The Tilt-Up Building System is a construction method where precast concrete walls or other components are fabricated on-site and then lifted and installed into their final positions, where they are connected with other structural elements to form the complete building. This system represents a specia...
A slip-form method that may be used for the pouring of vertical concrete walls includes the use of a separate polyethylene sheet or other suitable plastic film that rests against the surface of the concrete as it cures and permits the slip-form to be slowly raised up, leaving the plastic ...
In a method of making insulated concrete tilt-up panels, an insulating material such as polystyrene is formed into a desired shape corresponding to the panel shape. Attachment grooves are formed across the surface of the insulating material. Preferably, the attachment grooves have a substantially ...
Full-scale tests on precast concrete Tilt-Up-Wall (TUW) panels were designed to account, as closely as possible, for the nonlinear dynamic interaction between the walls and diaphragm of typical TUW buildings. This interaction was included in the component tests bj; using the motions obtained ...
WallsEarthquake resistant structuresPrecast concretePanelsDynamic responseStress analysisMathematical modelsEfforts to mitigate seismic hazards in tilt-up-wall (TUW) construction are evaluated. Analytical methods that can be used to determine the seismic response of TUW structures are described. Seismic ...
This research attempts to establish a reliable engineering design guide for embedded steel plates in tilt-up walls. Steel plates are the most important and widely-used connections in tilt-up; understanding the structural behavior of embedded steel plates in tilt-up construction due to eccentric ...
