Without windows, these panels weight 38,800 pounds. The crane operator has a chart indicating what each configuration of precast panel weighs, and the rigging for each panel is set accordingly when they go to hoist it. Each panel is set on shims set on the footer. They help with levelling and provide a gap between the precast and footer so the caulk/grout can fill in under each panel.
