Erecting Irregular Tilt-Up Panel Shapes
September 21, 2018 from 1:30pm to 2:30pm Central Standard Time
Dallas Ballroom C
James L. Caldwell, Professional Engineer
As tilt-up continues to stretch far beyond the big box, irregular panel shapes are becoming the norm. Special consideration needs to be given to the technical and logistical challenges that these panels can present. To promote safe and efficient erection of these complex panels this seminar will cover issues related to erection engineering of irregular shaped tilt-up panels, setting issues, rigging solutions with odd lifting patterns and issues that arise when L/r is excessive.
