TILT-UP CONSTRUCTION - Brock White

Gyro Tilt PlusSystemGyro Tilt Plus System*The Gyro Tilt Plus System is designed to quickly andefficiently lift and handle tilt-up panels and to be easilyreleased from the ground. Ladders are seldom requiredwhen utilizing this system.*U.S. Patent No. 4,703,595; 4,368,914 and 4,769,960.T-49 Gyro Tilt Plus Face Lift InsertThe Dayton Superior T-49 Gyro Tilt Plus Face Lift Insert isa 3/4” diameter insert manufactured from high quality steel.The hot forged head is engaged by the system hardware. Theinsert assembly is complete with plastic void and plastic protectedwire base. The insert assembly is easily positioned andtied to the rebar mat and requires no special orientation.To Order:Specify: (1) quantity, (2) name, (3) panel thickness,(4) bottom face exposed aggregate or form liner thickness.Example:150, T-49 Gyro Tilt Plus Face Lift Inserts, 6” panelwith 3/4” bottom face exposed aggregate.Lifting SystemsCoil InsertsT-49 Gyro Tilt PlusFace Lift InsertStructural PanelThicknessGyro Tilt PlusAnchor LengthInsert SafeWorking Load (lbs.)T-49 Gyro Tilt Plus Face Lift Insert Selection Chart5” 5-1/2” 6” 6-1/2” 7” 7-1/4” 7-1/2” 8”3-3/4” 4-1/4” 4-3/4” 5-1/4” 5-3/4” 5-3/4” 5-3/4” 5-3/4”8,000 10,000 12,000 13,500 15,000 15,000 15,000 15,000Warning! SWL provides a safety factor of approximately 2 to 1 in2,500 psi normal weight concrete.Note: Special inserts are available sized for panel thicknesses otherthan those listed in the chart above.Caution! Do not use for edge lifting of panels, insert is not designedfor such use. Do not use with top surface seeded exposed aggregate3/4” or larger, aggregate will pop out during erection, resulting in areduced insert SWL.Note: See page 4 for reduction factors that must be applied toinsert’s SWL when using lightweight concrete.Exposed Aggregate Panel InsertsTilt-up panels with exposed aggregate or formlinerthickness are often cast face down. In these panels, theaggregate or form liner thickness, as well as the structuralthickness are required to determine correct insert height.For panels cast with exposed aggregate face up, theoverall thickness of the panel determines insert height.1/8” 3/4” or Smaller Exposed AggregateSee notebelowStructural PanelThicknessSee notebelowPanel OverallThicknessNote: Attach insert to rebar mat on vertical portion of the wire base leg as shown. DO NOT attach rebar to the horizontalportion of the wire base leg.04-0947
