Tilt Up Construction vs Precast Concrete Construction

Tilt Up Construction is the process of building forms and casting concrete walls directly at the job site. The large concrete panels are then tilted up into position around the building's foundation.

Precast Concrete Construction is similar to tilt up construction except that the concrete is precast in reusable forms and cured in a controlled environment off site. The concrete panels then have to be transported to the job site. These panels are then assembled in the same manner as tilt up construction.

The biggest advantage to using tilt up construction versus precast concrete construction is that the size of the tilt up panel is only limited to the size of the building and the strength of the tilt up panels. Precast concrete construction has a drawback in that the size of the panel is much smaller causing less flexibility on the design of the building.
