"Summit Concrete assisted our design team in every step of the process, providing not only creative material selections, but timely cost information which allowed our client to make long-term design and cost decisions easily. Concrete tilt-up is not just for warehouse or retail facilities any more." - Pearce Construction
TILT-UP BROUGHT THE PROJECT IN BUDGET
"The overarching project goal was to maximize ministry space while adhering to the church’s restrictive budget. Summit Concrete was asked to evaluate the site-cast tilt-up construction method for comparison with the cost of other traditional commercial construction methods. The savings offered by the site-cast tilt-up method proved instrumental in bringing the project scope within the church’s budget.
In addition to its economical benefits, the site-cast tilt-up method accommodated the casting of several different shapes with intricate reveal and finish details. We were able to incorporate a variety of different materials into the architectural design necessary to achieve a traditional look with a contemporary flare. These materials included cast-in brick veneer, direct-applied stucco and post-applied pre-finished metal panels.
We were amazed at the reduced construction time realized from forming the panels on site and through the well coordinated erection techniques utilized. Rapid enclosure of the weather tight building envelope allowed work to begin more quickly on the interior. Shortening the length of the overall project schedule resulted in significantly reduced construction cost." - Mantel Teter Architects
We would love to talk with you to explore the possibilities of using tilt-up in your next project and adding you to the list of satisfied customers.
