Abstract:
This paper presents an alternative reinforcing method engineers and contractors may consider for tilt-up panel construction. A discussion is provided which outlines the different options available for incorporating welded wire reinforcement (WWR) bar mats in a tilt-up project. Comments are made on the advantages and disadvantages of utilizing this reinforcing procedure. Design considerations for reinforcing tilt-up panels with WWR mats are given.
