Reinforced Concrete Tilt-Up Panels

Reinforced Concrete Tilt-Up Panels

1 hr. Online Course

Level: Intermediate

Item#: RV-10662

SME: Rob Oleck

The term tilt-up panel is almost self-descriptive. This method of construction has been utilized through history, but only relatively recently have the advantages become economically viable. A combination of labor savings, speed of construction, and good finish quality, has made tilt-up panels more competitive. The following course will explain the tilt-up panel method of construction, itemize some of the current advantages of this construction method, and give an example of the design of a typical warehouse type building constructed of tilt-up walls.
Course Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, you will be able to:
  • Describe reinforced concrete tilt-up wall panel construction and its advantage
  • Calculate compression loads on tilt up wall from the roof system
  • Determine transverse loads on the wall from lateral wind pressure
  • Evaluate for P-Delta effects
  • Identify transverse wind loads on the overall building
  • Evaluate the tilt-up wall as a beam column
