23、 panels, p. 141CHAPTER 1INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE1.1IntroductionTilt-up concrete construction is a unique form of site-cast precast construction where building elements commonly referred to as panels are constructed in job-site conditions and set in place within the building design. The conditions of c
24、asting location and positioning within the building design, therefore, necessitate tilt-ups own specialized set of design parameters and construction techniques. Tilt-up panels are generally handled only once. They are lifted or tilted from the casting slab and erected in their final position in one
25、 continuous operation.ACI defines tilt-up as “a construction technique for casting concrete elements in a horizontal position at the job site and then tilting them to their final position in a structure.” ACI 318 further states that tilt-up concrete construction is a form of precast concrete. Severa
26、l features make the tilt-up construction method unique.Tilt-up panels serve as many functions for building design as markets in which they are constructed. Panels, or perhaps better described as tilt-up elements are constructed with and without openings, sometimes consisting of only a grid of monoli
27、thic beams and columns. Wall panels are found flat, ribbed, curved (with broad to tight radii), and even biaxially curved. Elements have been constructed freestanding and cantilevered, simply supported, and connected in a variety of configurations. Elements have been taller than 96 ft (30 m) (Lucky
28、Street Parking Garage, Hollywood, FL) and building faades have been stacked as high as 138 ft (42 m) (ASU Student Housing, Phoenix, AZ). Not all tilt-up elements are building panels, however. Although the majority produced annually are designed as either load- or nonload-bearing building envelope pa
29、nels, tilt-up elements have also been featured as signs, monuments and art, walkways, stadium seat supports, spires, tanks, tunnels, and bridges.1.2ScopeThis guide presents the basic concepts, techniques, and procedures used in tilt-up construction. The design of tilt-up wall panels, although not ad
30、dressed in this guide, is addressed in the companion design guide ACI 551.2R, which is beneficial in content to both licensed design profes-sionals and contractors. This guide includes a brief history of tilt-up concrete and a discussion of planning; foundation and floor slab construction; and wall
31、panel forming, casting, and erection. It briefly describes typical connections used to attach the panels to the rest of the structure, and options for panel finishes are briefly described.CHAPTER 2DEFINITIONSACI provides a comprehensive list of definitions through an online resource, “ACI Concrete T

45、s.CHAPTER 3HISTORY, TRENDS, AND SUSTAINABILITY3.1History of tilt-up constructionAlthough precasting building elements is sometimes considered an innovative concept in engineering, origins can be traced to as early as 4700 BC to a small village in Jarmo, Iraq, where the villagers made walls for their
46、 dwellings from touf, a pressed mud. As cementitious materials became available, the quality and durability of these precast mate-rials improved. The Romans produced pozzolan cement, which they used extensively in their building projects around 25 BC. It was not until the nineteenth century and the
47、development of portland cement that concrete structures became integral to the construction process. By 1890, port-land cement was widely accepted as the standard cementing material.Early structures using portland-cement concrete were usually cast-in-place. By 1914, cast-in-place concrete rein-force
48、d with mild steel reinforcing bars was second only to structural steel as a building material.Some builders in the United States developed an early form of tilt-up construction in which a tilting platform was used. Aiken (1909) described the innovative method where walls for a building were construc
49、ted on a structural plat-form, then rotated or tilted upward by means of specially designed mechanical jacks, setting the panel in its final posi-tion. This tilt table method was used on the Jewett Lumber Company in Des Moines, IA, between 1906 and 1912, and on several Army facilities, factory buildings, and churches. The tilt table method was also used on the Memorial United Methodist Church in suburban Chicago. The church construction incorporated decorative precast elements t
