This guide discusses many of the issues relating to the planning and construction of these buildings to produce a quality tilt-up project. Major topics include preconstruction planning, foundations, special considerations for slab-on-ground construction, wall panel forming and casting, panel erection, connections and repairing, and painting.  \nKeywords: finish; insert; panel; release agent; sandwich panel; tilt-up.  \nCONTENTS Chapter 1—Preface, p. 551.1R-2  \n1.1—Introduction  \n1.2—History of tilt-up construction  \n1.3—Trends  \nACI Committee Reports, Guides, Standard Practices, and Commentaries are intended for guidance in planning, designing, executing, and inspecting construction.
