Tilt-Up Concrete Construction

Site Evaluation


Planning begins with an evaluation of the site. A large, flat, open site is ideal, but not common. Therefore, evaluate the site with regard to slab layout and the movement of materials and equipment around the slab. If the site is tight around the building, consider sequencing the pouring of slabs and panels from within the building.

A plan or sketch showing the pouring and erection sequence relative to the site and floor plan of the building can identify potential problems.
