Demo Experience Kickoff Bash: The Mock-Up Medley Unveiling
October 21, 2026 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm Mountain Time
Join the tilt-up community for the official launch of the Demo Experience and the unveiling of the 2026 Mock-Up Medley: The Art of Finish. Set within the exhibit hall at the Salt Palace Convention Center, this opening-night gathering brings together architecture, construction, materia...
Simplifying Stack Casting with Modular Formwork [LIVE DEMO]
October 22, 2026 from 10:00am to 10:30am Mountain Time
Stack casting can be an effective solution when project sites lack the space required for conventional panel layouts, but it introduces unique forming and construction challenges. This live demonstration shows how a modular, reusable forming system can simplify stack casting by reducing setup tim...
Rebar Tying Solutions: Speed, Ergonomics, and Productivity in Practice [LIVE DEMO]
October 22, 2026 from 11:30am to 12:00pm Mountain Time
Rebar tying is a repetitive task that directly affects productivity, labor efficiency, and worker fatigue. This live demonstration showcases automated rebar tying technology in action, comparing handheld and stand-up solutions while highlighting speed, consistency, and ergonomic benefits. Attende...
Testing Concrete Surface Conditions for Reliable Adhesive Bonding [LIVE DEMO]
October 22, 2026 from 1:00pm to 1:30pm Mountain Time
Successful adhesive bonding begins with understanding the condition of the concrete surface. This live demonstration explores how different curing methods influence surface free energy (SFE) and, ultimately, bonding performance. Using multiple concrete samples, attendees will observe live SFE tes...
Finding Shop Drawing Errors Before Concrete Is Placed [LIVE DEMO]
October 22, 2026 from 2:30pm to 3:00pm Mountain Time
Small errors in shop drawings can become costly field problems once concrete is placed. This live demonstration shows how statistical analysis and AI-assisted review can identify unusual dimensions, panel weights, embed counts, and other anomalies as drawings are created. Attendees will watch a r...
Vertical Panel Casting and Vacuum-Assisted Installation [LIVE DEMO]
October 23, 2026 from 10:00am to 10:30am Mountain Time
Traditional tilt-up construction has long relied on horizontal casting beds and conventional lifting methods. This demonstration introduces an alternative approach that combines vertical casting with vacuum-assisted panel handling to simplify production and installation. Attendees will see how th...
See Before You Drill with GPR Rebar Scanning [LIVE DEMO]
October 23, 2026 from 11:30am to 12:00pm Mountain Time
Modifying existing tilt-up panels requires confidence in what lies beneath the surface. This live demonstration showcases how ground-penetrating radar (GPR) can be used to locate embedded reinforcement and other subsurface objects before drilling, coring, cutting, or anchoring. Attendees will obs...

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.
