Raising the Bar with Seamless Digital Workflows for Tilt-Up

October 22, 2026 from 9:00am to 10:00am Mountain Standard Time

Terry Baird

As project complexity increases and tolerances tighten, digital workflows are becoming essential to maintaining consistency across design, coordination, and field execution in tilt-up construction. This session outlines an end-to-end approach linking model-based coordination and clash detection with robotic field deployment for panel layout and real-time QA/QC. Attendees will examine how model-driven detailing and connected workflows influence the planning and installation of lifting points, brace locations, embeds, and reveals, improving alignment between design intent and field execution. The discussion highlights the impact of integrated digital systems on accuracy, error reduction, and predictability, particularly for teams operating across multiple projects and regions.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Apply model-based workflows for tilt-up panel coordination and clash detection.
• Understand how digital QA/QC processes improve reliability, tolerances, and field execution.
• Translate coordinated digital models into the field through robotic layout technologies.
• Evaluate real-world applications of digital tilt-up workflows to identify transferable lessons and best practices.
