WALL PANEL
WALL TYPE
A curtain wall system consisting of performed metal cut stone, precast concrete or
panelized brick wall units which may reglazed or glazed after installation. The framing is
attached to the building structure and does not carry the floor or roof loads of the building.
The wind and gravity load of the curtain wall are transferred to the building structure,
typically at the floor line.
BENEFITS
Light weight
Economical
Easy installation
Faster
High-rise housing
Office buildings
Corporate headquarters buildings
DISADVANTAGE
Heavy equipment for installation
Changes are difficult because panels are made beforehand

TILT-UP WALL PANEL
SYSTEM
TILT UP
IT IS A TECHNIQUEOFSITE CASTING CONCRETE WALLS OR ELEMENTS,
TYPICALLY DONE ON A HORIZONTAL SURFACE AND ONCE CURED, IT IS
TILTED VERTICALLY INTO PLACE USING A MOBILE CRANE. IT IS
TEMPORARILLY BRACED INTO ITS FINAL STANDING POSITION AND IS TIED
INTO THE BUILDING’S ROOF AND FLOORING SYSTEM
HISTORY
IN 1907, ROBERT H. AIKEN WAS DESIGNING AND BUILDING
RETARETAING WALLS AT THE CAMP LOGAN RIFLE RANGEIN ILLINO IS, THUS,
TILT- UP CONSTRUCTIONWASBORN.
HOWEVER, DUE TO THEEXPENSEOF CONSTRUCTING TILTINGPLAFORMS,
TILT- UP DID NOT CATCHON ASA PRACTICAL TECNIQUE UNTIL 1946 WHEN
THE MODERN MOBILE CRANES WERE DEVELOPED DURINGWORLD WAR2.
AFTER THE WAR, IT HE CAME A POPULAR CONSTRUCTION TRECHNIQUE.
METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION
METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION
1. AT THE CONSTRUCTION SITE, WORKERS BUILD A FRAME FOR THE WALL.
THIS IS USUALLY BUILT ON THE FLOOR OF THE BUILDING BEING
BUILT.DOORS, WINDOWS AND OTHER OPENINGS ARE FRAMED IN.
2. REINFORCING STEEL IS PLACED INSIDE FINISHED FRAME. CONCRETE IS
PUMPED INTO THE WALL FRAME. FINISHES CAN BE APPLIED AT THIS STAGE
SUCH AS TEXTURE OR COLOR.
3. WAITING PERIOD IS A WEEK TO 10 DAYS WHILE THE CONCRETE ATTAINS
SUFFICIENT STRENGTH FOR LIFTING. THE FRAME IS REMOVED. WORKERS
READY THE WALL FOR LIFTING. THESE TYPES OF WALLS CAN WEIGH UP TO
100,000 POUNDS.
4. RIGGING IS ATTACHED. A CRANE IS USED TO LIFT THE WALL CAREFULLY.
WORKERS USE LARGE BRACES TO STEADY THE WALL AS IT IS RAISED.
5. After the panels are poured and lifted into place, each panel must be temporarily braced
to safely hold it in a vertical position.
ADVANTAGE
Fast, simple, and economical technique of construction.
It eliminates the need for expensive transportation of materials.
No expensive vertical formwork is required to finish the job.
Low maintenance, it is not affected by moisture and weathering.
Flexible, it can be easily removed and relocated if future expansion became necessary.
The fire safety rating of a concrete building will provide a fire endurance of two hours or more.
DISADVANTAGES
Panels are engineered before work begins making changes difficult.
Complicated reinforcing patterns and layout of openings.
Lifting panels requires specialized equipment and third-party engineering to calculate the lifting
loads.
