Extending the Function of Concrete as a Cladding Material

Product Number: 41207-299-SG
Author: Lorella Angelini
Publication Date: 2007
$20.00

“Tilt-up" is a state-of-the-art building system in which steel reinforced concrete panels are cast on site and tilted up into their final position. The tilt-up panels are load bearing and also function as cladding elements. With the exceptions of integrally colored concrete, tilt-up concrete panels can look bare and unattractive if a finish is not applied. It is also well known that concrete is not a “perfect” material as it shows porosity and micro-cracks which can lead to deterioration over time.
