Shaping Earth Mock-Up
Duration: 9 minutes
An investigation into the interplay of local materials and form, this project examines the inherent qualities of soil and rock as formative elements in tilt-up concrete construction. Inspired by Arizona’s geological processes, the work seeks to evoke erosion and light, reframing the structural and aesthetic capacities of tilt-up through an exploration of its latent potential.
A reduced-scale test, this mock-up serves as a provisional study where material responses and formal interactions are examined. Insights gained here will inform and refine the final construction, allowing the project to evolve through iterative exploration.

About the Tilt-Up Concrete Association
Founded in 1986, the Tilt-Up Concrete Association (TCA) strives to improve the quality and acceptance of site-cast Tilt-Up construction - one of the fastest growing industries in the United States, combining the advantages of reasonable cost with low maintenance, durability, speed of construction and minimal capital investment. Over 10,000 buildings, enclosing more than 650 million square feet, are constructed each year using this construction method.
