Reload
The 60,000-square-foot Reload Gun Range features tilt-up construction for all exterior and interior walls, cast and placed on an extremely tight site. Ranges exposed to the building's exterior were set as double walls with 1-foot separation later filled with insulation to act as sound barriers, along with a poured concrete roof. Panels exposed to the gun ranges were designed as wide as 46 feet to reduce interior joints for bullet ricochet.

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.
