Tilt-up and Precast Concrete Checklist

Project: Subcontractor: Engineering Co.: Date: Panel No.:

LORAC Foreman: S/C Foreman: Engineer:
It is the subcontractors responsibility to have all sections ticked off and actioned as the item is completed. This checklist is to be completed EACH DAY when tilt-up or precast panels are
being installed. The completed forms must be given to Laing ORourke when all items are completed.

The crossed areas in the (inspection by) column identify who is responsible for each item. The responsible party initials this section or submits documentation, as evidence each item is
inspected/actioned.

6. Pre-erection checks Concrete panels have achieved the correct strength for lifting as specified in the shop drawings. (Verification has X X
been obtained from the builder or supplier.)
Deadmen and/or floor slab have achieved required concrete strength as specified in engineers drawings.
Panels have been identified and marked with casting date and panel numbers
Spreader bar and rigging configuration used meets load requirements for type of panel
All lifting slings have SWL and current inspection tags displayed.
Lifting inserts and clutches are a compatible design (must be proprietary).
Ground conditions OK for supporting crane (level and compacted surface, outriggers used slewing cranes only, no
penetrations or pits in proximity).
Site access is adequate
Proximity of overhead power lines considered and appropriate action taken.
Exclusion zones have been barricaded and sign posted to keep non-essential personnel away during erection and
rigging.
Exclusion zone installed to a minimum of one and half times the height of the panel (tilt-up only).
Wind conditions are not detrimental to lifting.
7. Panel lifting and Back up chains fitted when lifting all precast panels X X
erection No side lifting (where possible) or suicide lifting (ie. lifting in such a way that if the rigging fails, the panel will strike
the crane and/or operator).
Bond breakers used (no jacking or shock-loading when lifting to break panel from stack).
Levelling pads installed and set at correct height and location as per design.
Locating (dowel) pins and levelling shims installed as required in design drawings.

and end braces and strongbacks installed where specified by designer).
Anchors used for fixing braces to the slab or deadman are an approved type (not self-drilling, low load slip or
chemical).
Minimum of two braces per panel or as otherwise specified in drawing.
Only one brace fitted to each deadman (where applicable).
No mix and match braces (all braces must be of same type unless otherwise specified by engineer)
Locking pins (eg. R clips) properly inserted in push-pull braces. Keyed retaining pins used to prevent unauthorised
removal or adjustment. (Key only available to authorised contractor and Temporary Works Coordinator)
Brace angle does not exceed 5 from perpendicular and is approximately 50-60 from horizontal (or as otherwise
specified in the drawings).
Braces marked with manufacturers name and type, WLL and maximum extension.
Panels released from crane only after temporary bracing has been properly installed.
Exclusion zones have been barricaded and sign posted to keep vehicles and plant away from temporary braces and
supporting structures.
