Butler Manufacturing Letter

/ /

This is to acknowledge that Butler Manufacturing has furnished more than 30 metal building projects (over 1,200,000 square feet of roofed area) to Park Avenue Construction, Ltd., who has been using the Hi-Tech Tilt™ wall composite system on these buildings for the past 9 years. These Hi-Tech Tilt™ wall panels have been applied in both load bearing and non-load bearing conditions. To date Butler Manufacturing has not received any negative feedbacks or complaints on any of these projects.

Hi-Tech Tilt™ at the World of Concrete Expo. – Review

/ /

After several months of preparation and coordination with several different companies, Hi-Tech Tilt™ Wall Systems made their debut at the World of Concrete in Las Vegas, NV.

The concept of our presentation was to show the capabilities of our system incorporating various technologies in the tilt-up concrete industry. We teamed up with several different manufacturers to supply the different components of our “tilt-up building”. Our building was 6’-0” feet wide by 9’-4” long and 9’-0” high.

The companies participating with Hi-Tech Tilt™ in this were:

Elemix Concrete Additive – www.elemixadditive.com
Elemix provided their patented polymeric sphere additive compound into the concrete batch design providing lighter weight concrete with insulating and flexural characteristics in one of our panels.

Innovative Brick Systems – www.mbrick.com
Innovative provided design and materials for 2 panels illustrating various patterns and materials for wall and opening conditions. Their design included thin brick and tile materials cast in our panels.

Greenstreak Group – www.greenstreak.com
Greenstreak provided design and materials for formliner installation on two panels. This design showed a wide variety of formliner solutions in our panels.

MorCon Inc. – www.morconinc.com
MorCon is a Hi-Tech Tilt™ Licensee located in Las Vegas, NV. MorCon took delivery of all the materials, coordinated the concrete batch designs, formed, poured, delivered and erected the panels.

In addition to the panels described above, MorCon built a HTT Thermo Panel with a cut away section to show the studs, insulation and reinforcing inside the panel.

The workmanship on all of the panels was exemplary, and received many praises from people across the industry.

Our multi-faceted marketing approach to the World of Concrete generated substantial traffic to both of our booths, one indoor with presentation and educational information, and one outdoor with the various examples of panel types. Our product team members referred people to our booths as we referred people to theirs.

Registered visitors at our booth came from 42 states and provinces in North America and 16 countries from around the world, proving this truly was the World of Concrete.

We heard comments like, “I flew 20 hours to find a solution to really help my business, and Hi-Tech Tilt™ is exactly what I was searching for!” Most of the time at the show, people were standing 2 deep and 2-3 abreast to learn more about HTT.

Hi-Tech Tilt™ is responding to a truly global market. Our products and solutions bring a truly competitive edge to Design-Build Contractors, Owners, A/E Firms, Developers, and Concrete Contractors no matter what language they speak. The many advantages of our systems help get the projects built in today’s economy. While many traditional methods and systems are declining, Hi-Tech Tilt™ is accelerating. The reception by participants at the World of Concrete is a solid indicator of the impact of Hi-Tech Tilt™ in this world market.

In my experience as and architect for the last 29 years, I have always been on the lookout for new and innovative ideas for construction methods. “Hi-Tech Tilt” has impressed me and many of my associates tremendously. With the market as volatile as it is right now, time and cost is more than just a concern, and more than a requirement for consideration, it is mandatory. With “Hi-Tech Tilt” these requirements have become much easier to achieve. With the ease and simplicity of construction of these walls, time and cost are the benefits. So much so that one of our key clients, “Goodwill Industries of San Antonio” have made it almost a mandatory requirement in construction of there new retail centers. With the time and cost savings there retail center have become almost instant money makers. In closing I highly recommend “Hi-Tech Tilt” for any commercial project and would endorse it without hesitation.

Sincerely,
Manuel Berroteran

Hi-Tech Tilt™ Wall System

Considerations for Design-Build or Value Engineering


  • 66% less Concrete
  • Smaller Form Material for one-sided panels
  • Reinforcing Steel & Hardware Reduction
  • Substantial Dead Load Reduction on Foundation
  • Lighter Crane for one-sided or Insulated sandwich panels
  • Interior Drywall Framing ready on one-sided panels
  • Insulated and pre-finished panels in sandwich application
  • Elimination of Embed Anchors due to steel framing at 2’-0” centers

  • Forming, Reinforcing, Material Handling
  • Lifting, Setting, Bracing
  • Lift, Align & Weld for Multistory Applications
  • Lighter Braces required
  • Drywall Framing Time & Labor can be eliminated
  • Frequently Combine Panel Erection w/ Structure Erection

  • Structural Reductions from Reduced Dead Loads
  • Accelerate Subcontractors
  • Collapse Time Frames
  • Reduce Interim Financing

  • Reduced Site Disturbance
  • Less Casting Beds Required because street lighter crane can be used, frequently eliminating set-up charges for major cranes
  • “HTT” Panels are ready to lift within 2 days and can be erected more quickly, freeing slab surface for a second batch of panels that can be ready in a few days for the next lift
  • Panels can be precast for delivery to the project
  • Optimize Energy Performance
  • Insulated Sandwich Panels with 4” – 8” studs can provide from R-12 to R-30 Values
  • One-sided tilt panels are ready to receive various insulation types and values
  • Thermal Break options are economically available
  • Recycled & Regional Content in Materials
  • Steel Studs are 100% recycled
  • Steel Studs are cold-roll fabricated and punched from coils of typically 16 Gauge Steel
  • Fly ash and other recycled contents or additives are optional in concrete
  • Relocatable Wall Panels
  • Panels can be demounted for relocation and shipment to another location
  • Panels can be precast for delivery to the original or a future project
  • Environmental Quality
  • Panels help maintain a dust-free environment
  • Reduce Fuel & Emissions
  • By the substantial reduction in CY of concrete delivered to the project fuel & emissions are substantially reduced
  • At the project site
  • At the manufacturing site(s)
  • At the supply and distribution site(s)
