Our Portfolio: Tilt-up

Tilt-up structures are a very cost effective method of building construction.

While primarily used originally for warehousing and industrial projects, tilt-up is now very much a contender in office, hotel, prison, shopping centre and school buildings, up to four stories.

Tilt-up structures, offering low maintenance, fast construction and pleasing architectural features are now commonplace.

We are members of the Tilt-up Concrete Association.
