Wall Panel Systems

01/10/2016

A WALL PANEL is single piece of material, usually usually flat and cut into a rectangular rectangular shape, that serves as the visible and exposed covering for a wall. Wall panels are functional as well as decorative, decorative, providing insulation and soundproofing, combined combined with uniformity of appearance, along with some measure of durability or ease of replacement.

IT IS A TECHNIQUE OF SITE CASTING CONCRETE WALLS OR ELEMENTS, TYPICALLY DONE ON A HORIZONTAL SURFACE AND ONCE CURED, IT IS TILTED VERTICALLY INTO PLACE USING A MOBILE CRANE. IT IS TEMPORARILLY BRACED INTO ITS FINAL STANDING POSITION AND IS TIED INTO THE BUILDING’S ROOF AND FLOORING SYSTEM.

AFTERTHE WAR, ITBECAME A POPULAR CONSTRUCTIONTRECHNIQUE.

AT THE CONSTRUCTION SITE, WORKERS BUILD A FRAME FOR THE WALL. THIS IS USUALLY BUILT ON THE FLOOR OF THE BUILDING BEING BUILT. DOORS, WINDOWS AND OTHER OPENINGS ARE FRAMED IN.

01/10/2016

REINFORCING STEEL IS PLACED INSIDE FINISHED FRAME. CONCRETE IS PUMPED INTO THE WALL FRAME. FINISHES CAN BE APPLIED AT THIS STAGE SUCH AS TEXTURE OR COLOR.

RIGGING IS ATTACHED. A CRANE IS USED TO LIFT THE WALL CAREFULLY. WORKERS USE LARGE BRACES TO STEADY THE WALL AS IT IS RAISED.

The panels are cast as close to their final upright position as possible to make the actual lifting operation as quick and efficient as possible.

WAITING PERIOD IS A WEEK TO 10 DAYS WHILE THE CONCRETE ATTAINS SUFFICIENT STRENGTH FOR LIFTING. THE FRAME IS REMOVED. WORKERS READY THE WALL WALL FOR LIFTING. THESE TYPES OF WALLS CAN WEIGH UP TO 100,000 POUNDS.

01/10/2016

After the panels are poured and lifted into place, each panel must be temporarily temporarily braced to safely hold it in a vertical position.

ONCE PLACED IN ITS VERTICAL POSITION, THE WALL SECTION IS BRACED. WORKERS ATTACH ATTACH TH E WALL TO THE ROOF SUPPPORTS AND TO THE FOUNDATION.

•

Fast, simple, and economical technique of construction.

•

It eliminates the need for expensive transportation of materials.

•

No expensive vertical formwork is required to finish the job.

•

Low maintenance, it is not affected by moisture and weathering.

•

•

Flexible, it can be easily removed and relocated if future expansion became necessary. The fire safety rating of a concrete building will provide a fire endurance of two hours or more.

FOUNDATION

•

Panels are engineered before work begins making changes difficult.

•

Complicated reinforcing patterns and layout of openings.

•

Lifting panels requires specialized equipment and third party engineering to calculate the lifting loads.

Panels are typically connected to the building's footing and floor slab by welding preinstalled metal inserts together, by using grout and dowels to hold the wall panels in place, or by using a cast-in-place concrete connection.

TILT-UP CONNECTIONS •

Cast-in-place

•

Welded embedded metal

•

Embedded inserts

•

Drilled-in inserts

PANEL TO PANEL Tilt-up panels can be either welded or cast into the buildings footer, and both the type of connection and the timing of connecting the panels to the footer must be considered.

•

•

The designer must design the building with the intention of having it constructed using tilt up method. Since tilt-up panels typically experience stresses from three to four times higher during lifting than they do once they are placed into position, it is extremely important for the designer to consider the critical lifting loads during the design process.

•

Tilt up wall panel system can be used for any type of low- to mid-rise building. It is most commonly used in warehouses, which has a rectangular shape and large floor area.
