Resilient, sustainable structures are increasingly demanded by building owners and the communities in which we live. Design professionals face challenges daily in providing such buildings while still meeting economic performance objectives. Based on the ACI 551 Tilt-Up Design Guide and standard construction industry practice, this webinar will explore how design professionals can capitalize on the advantages of tilt-up construction to provide safe, durable structures that withstand a variety of loads throughout their life cycle. During the webinar, participants will learn important design aspects associated with tilt-up panels. The session will also include examples that review stresses a panel experiences during construction and as a load-resisting element in a building structure.
- Course will award 1.5 hours of continuing education
- This course is Diamond Review approved in 49 states. New York does not accept hours from recordings.
