message: I posted six of the photos in the gallery, (I'll post one of the finished building shortly, it is a Tyre Center) and I'll give you my perspective on tilt up as a builder.
* I am currently living in a tilt slab house.
* Built in the years just after cyclone Tracy devastated Darwin in 1974.
* Quite a few hundreds of these houses were built very quickly. Like in 18 months by one company.
* The panels were produced at a central factory and delivered to site by truck.
* This method while excellent for it's time, is not used for house construction today, the equivalent building method now is reinforced 200 series concrete blockwork.  Compare this to the 110 wall thickness of tilt slabs.
* Tilt up is still used for particular jobs, that is commercial work that is on very tight sites, and speed is important.
* I have a mate who built quite a few small tilt up warehouses a few years ago, but at the end of the day the cost difference between tilt slab and concrete blockwork was marginal.
*There were a few (as we used to say) pre-cast panel houses built prior to cyclone Tracy, and many of those failed disastrously because of poor connection of the panels.  When the roofs started lifting the panels literally fell down.

replies: text: Thank you for your contributions so far! Those are all really interesting details - why don't you add them to the article? It'd be great if you had references, but those seem to be pretty hard to find for this topic. :( Vagary 05:58, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
