Tilt-Up Structures

Energy efficient, economical, and durable.

Tilt-up construction is a two step-process where concrete slabs are cast on the ground before they’re lifted by crane and placed vertically on the foundation. Although not a solution for every project, when it’s a good fit, the process can save you on time, money, and even energy.

Any structure with a large, open floorplan is a good option for tilt-up including office buildings, retail space, schools, and warehouses. Let us know what you’ve got planned and one of our seasoned structural engineers will help make it happen.
