Title: Fulcrum tilt building system

Abstract: A method of constructing buildings is disclosed wherein a multicellular monolithic structure is formed with walls and future floors all in a vertical plane. The walls may be formed from concrete or other laminate material. The structure is then tilted about tilt points along a tilt line which is retained in a V-groove attached to a base until the structure reaches a vertical location. After the tilting step the structure is levelled by means of jacks. Wedges are inserted to support the structure and the jacks are removed. Several structures may be assembled to form a building. Cantilever walls may be added which join together to form a corridor or hall between structures.
