Tilt-Up Concrete Construction

Panel Lifting

 

The erection sequence should be determined well in advance, but it's a good idea to review it immediately before panel erection. Also, thoroughly review safety procedures with all Tilt-Up crew members to help prevent accidents. Discuss crane operation, bracing and anchorage details, cable releases, and job communication.

Locate and clean inserts and embeds and attach braces before lifting the panels. It is much quicker and safer to do this work while the panel is flat rather than doing it on a ladder after the panel is upright.

Don't remove braces until after the roof and decking are installed.

Once braces are removed, workers can patch holes in the floor and complete other finish work.
