I am working on a tilt- up building andthere is a fairly dificult 3 panel connection where 2 panels must be welded then another will be placed after that. The contractor has placed the embeds for the adjoining panel on the wrong edge. What do you all reccomend as a good solution.

That completely depends on the purpose of the connections. If it's just an alignment plate, then you've got nothing to worry about. If the third panel is "hanging" off of the other two, then you need to look at post-installed anchors and account for edge distances and eccentricity.

At this stage, afterset bolting may be your only alternative.
