Stupid me. I assumed people knew what kind of construction was going on, before they offered solutions and suggestions.

It makes perfect sense that TV would use Precast, as Tilt Up requires space and presumes not all walls will be the same. Precast is much more cost effective when building "cookie cutter" homes. In the area of the country where wood is prevalent, it would be called "modular" or "panelized".
