Insulated Concrete Forms for Tilt-Up Construction

Learn more by accessing installation guides and manuals.

The patented LiteForm TILT® system is a high-performance insulated concrete form designed specifically for tilt-up construction projects. Featuring expanded polystyrene panels and 18-gauge steel attachment rails, this innovative system offers a lightweight, speedy, and energy-efficient casting solution for various site-cast tilt-up concrete walls. These concrete form panels can be integrated to create an energy-efficient finished wall with an impressive nominal R-30 insulating value. Alternatively, the panels can be adapted for multiple uses in casting conventional, non-insulated concrete walls, offering versatility and efficiency in construction projects.

  • What are the benefits of using LiteForm Tilt?

    Reduced Weight: The lighter form panels allow for simple, single-point face lifting.

    Customizable: Panels can be quickly modified to incorporate custom block-outs and openings.

    Versatile Sizes: Standard forms are available in 2-foot or 4-foot widths, with custom designs available for nearly any width.

    Custom Lengths: Panels are provided in lengths of 40 feet or more and can be field-cut as needed.

    Customizable Structural Ribs: Standard ribs are placed every 24 inches, but locations can be customized. Rib depths can also be tailored to meet specific engineering specifications.

    Flexible Panel Designs: Forms can be designed for single or double concrete faces (sandwich panels). For single-sided panels, studs can be inserted for fastening.

  • Can LiteForm Tilt panels be reused?

    Yes, the insulation panels can be modified for reuse in casting conventional, non-insulated concrete walls, making them a cost-effective and sustainable option for multiple projects.

  • What is the R-value of LiteForm Tilt panels?

    The R-value of LiteForm Tilt panels varies depending on the form design, providing flexibility to meet specific insulation needs. The average insulating value of a LiteForm Tilt panel is around R-40.

  • How can LiteForm Tilt panels be customized?

    LiteForm Tilt panels can be customized in terms of width, length, structural rib placement, and rib depth. Custom block-outs and openings can also be incorporated, making the system highly adaptable to specific project needs.

  • What are the standard sizes for LiteForm Tilt panels?

    The standard widths are 2 feet and 4 feet. The panels are available in custom lengths of 40 feet or more, which can be field-cut to the desired size.

  • Can LiteForm Tilt be used for both insulated and non-insulated walls?

    Yes, LiteForm Tilt is versatile and can be used to create both insulated walls with varying R-values and conventional non-insulated concrete walls.

  • What materials are used in LiteForm Tilt?

    LiteForm Tilt panels are made from expanded polystyrene (EPS) with 18-gauge steel attachment rails, providing a strong yet lightweight form for tilt-up concrete construction.

  • Are there options for incorporating studs in LiteForm Tilt panels?

    Yes, for single-sided concrete panels, studs can be inserted into the forms, allowing for fastening and additional structural support.

  • How tall can walls constructed with LiteForm Tilt be?
