Tilt-Up Concrete Structures
Also Known As:
ACI 551R-92 (R2003) is a standard that provides guidance and recommendations for the construction of tilt-up concrete structures. Tilt-up concrete construction is a popular method used in low-rise building projects. This standard focuses on various aspects of tilt-up construction, including design, erection, and other considerations.
The standard emphasizes the importance of careful planning in tilt-up projects. It provides guidance on designing structures that can be efficiently constructed using tilt-up methods. It also offers recommendations on the selection of construction materials and techniques to ensure the structural integrity and durability of tilt-up structures.
Additionally, the standard provides guidance on the proper erection of tilt-up panels, addressing issues such as crane selection, lifting inserts, and bracing. It also covers topics like panel connections, joint treatments, and finishes. The standard aims to ensure that tilt-up structures are constructed safely and efficiently, meeting the required standards and regulations.
