Tilt-up construction is a concrete building and construction technique where the elements, also called "Tilt-up panels" or "Tiltwall panels", are cast on site and lifted into their final position, maximising many of the unique and sustainable benefits of concrete for a cost-effective building technique and efficient construction method. Elements that are to be tilted up are formed on a concrete slab; usually the building floor, but sometimes a temporary concrete casting surface near the building footprint. After the concrete has cured, the elements are tilted from horizontal to vertical with a crane and braced into position until the remaining building structural components (roofs, intermediate floors and walls) are secured.

Precast Concrete Building: A building constructed using precast concrete wall panels. Precast construction is similar to tilt-up construction, except that the concrete wall panels are formed at a manufacturing facility and transported to the job site rather than formed directly at the site.

Tilt-up construction saves effort, time, energy and money and provides a superior alternative to any other form of construction.

Have you ever driven past a construction site and seen massive cranes lifting huge panels of concrete in the air? Have you watched with amazement as a new commercial building seems to spring into place, almost overnight? What you have witnessed is tilt-up construction, an innovative method for building office buildings, retail centers, warehouses, distribution centres, call centres, manufacturing facilities and other commercial / industrial structures with amazing speed, safety, and cost benefits.

In traditional forms of wall construction, the walls can be built with bricks or blocks. Regardless which traditional approach is used, building the exterior walls is a time-consuming, multi-stepped process. A tilt-up building's walls are created on-site, horizontally in large slabs of concrete called panels. The panels are then lifted, or tilted up, into position around the building's slab. This means the tilt-up structure's exterior wall is virtually finished when it is tilted into place.
