tilt-up
Camera pans skyward
Tilt-up is a construction method where concrete wall panels are poured flat on the ground, then lifted—tilted up—into position using cranes.
The technique is common for warehouses, factories, and big-box retail buildings: The distribution center went up fast using tilt-up construction.
As an adjective, it describes structures built this way: a tilt-up warehouse.
