TILT-UP/PRECAST

TILT-UP

Gyro Tilt Plus System

Insert

- The GTP inserts are simply wired to the rebar

mat at designated points. No special orientation

is required but reasonable care should be taken to

assure that the insert is the correct overall height for

the panel and remains perpendicular to the panel

face during concrete placement.

Hardware

- After proper concrete cure, the GTP

Hardware is attached to the crane rigging and

moved to the panel to be picked. The plastic void

cap is removed from the insert assembly and the

void checked for foreign matter. The hardware is

then placed in the void in the "open position" which

allows the hardware to nest into the ring of the

"closed position" engages the hardware ball/detent

lock-up, captures the insert and allows the lifting

sequence to begin. Visual inspection will confirm

proper hardware installation.

SWL provides a factor of safety of approximately 2 to 1 in normal weight 2,500 psi concrete.

Consult manufacturers data on values on shear and reduced edge distance.
