Although it’s not the answer in every circumstance, tilt-up concrete has often been the most appropriate choice of materials for our sound stages.
Bastien and Associates, Inc. pioneered the use of tilt-up technology for this application. Using the firm’s experience in industrial warehouse and distribution centers, Bastien applied its expertise to sound stages, saving millions of dollars in construction costs per project over traditional sound stage construction techniques.
The economy comes from the combination of wall, structure, and acoustic insulation into one tilt-up panel assembly. There are many specialized details Bastien has developed for the many related assemblies, yet the construction costs have been consistently 25-60% lower than traditional double-wall construction.
