The Devcon Construction team has been hard at work preparing the 117 concrete panels for tilting this week. Once the panels solidify and the forms are removed, the crew attaches braces to the each tilt-up panel. They will connect each panel to a large crane with cables that hook into the inserts. The crane lifts, or “tilts” up the panel from the slab into a vertical position. Workers guide the concrete panel into position and the crane sets it into place. Workers then connect the tilt-up panel braces to the slab, attach the embeds to the footing, and disconnect cables from the crane. The crew then moves to the next panel and repeats this process–117 times in the case of the Victory Station project.
