1 - INTRODUCTION
This guide explains the usage and application principles and the basic details that should be known about the boards manufactured by TEPE BETOPAN CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS INDUSTRY AND COMMERCE INC. to architects, civil engineers, technical staff and craftsmen, contractors, job providers and end users. In this guide, you can find a brief introduction to our company, products and product types, main usage areas and appropriate detail solutions, and some points of attention regarding our products. Should you need more specific details or solutions that are not included in this guide, please consult our Technical Support Department.
As a Bilkent Holding company, TEPE BETOPAN established BETOPAN factory in 1984 at Ankara Beytepe Facilities with the name TEPE GROUP as it was called at the time, and pioneered the production of cement-bonded particle boards in TURKEY. In 1999, the factory was renovated using state of the art systems and its capacity was doubled. In 2001, the other CementBonded Particle board factory in ARHAVI was acquired making the Group the sole manufacturer in Turkey, and one of the leading manufacturers in the world with a capacity of 67,500 m3/year. In 2008, the transfer of the production line in Arhavi to our facilities at Bilkent, Ankara unified the production resulting in a stronger production facility and boosting the sales both locally and globally. Developed by diligent and unrelenting in-house research and development, BETOPANPLUS was added in the year 2000 to our product range as a more stable and durable BETOPAN. Thereby, TEPE BETOPAN hailed as a technology developer company by starting the production and sales of BETOPANPLUS along with the cement-bonded particle board BETOPAN. After adding BETOPANPLUS to our product range in addition to the original product BETOPAN, TEPE BETOPAN launched the wood-textured YALIPAN and stone textured TASONIT boards. Our company now holds European patents of BETOPANPLUS, YALIPAN and TASONIT. TEPE BETOPAN, as an entity, made significant contributions to enhancing the quality and, widening the usage range of boards thanks to the dynamism it has drawn from research and development over time and the respect it shows for production, and continues to do so.

Cement and wood have been used as two fundamental elements of construction throughout history. Cement and wood had been used as two separate construction materials until early 1920s. Then studies were started to use a combination of the two, and most of the research activities focused on the determination of the physico-chemical relation between the two items. Towards the late 1920s, it became a common practice to mix cement with wood chips instead of sand. By early 1940s, the knowledge required for turning the mixture of cement and wood chips into a board was attained. In 1940, the first wood fiber boards were manufactured by adding very long fibers to cement and pressing. Subsequently, the panels that were the prototypes of todays cement-bonded particle boards were manufactured by adding shorter wood fibers to cement. The first company to manufacture the present cement-bonded particle boards was established in 1967 in Switzerland. Research continued since then aiming to create boards manufactured from versatile, practical, environment-friendly and wholly ecological raw materials. The 1970s witnessed the erection of cement-bonded particle board factories one after another around the world.
BETOPAN production involves use of natural and traditional materials such as wood and cement and other mineralization materials not harmful to human health. Moisture Resistance BETOPAN is the right material required for wet areas and exterior faades for its resistance to moisture. Water Resistance BETOPAN swells negligibly (1.5%) when immersed in water for 24 hours. Non-molding 1- BETOPAN does not mold due to its moisture resistance. 2- It is resistant to insects and pests. 3- BETOPAN does not host insects and pests due to its cement content. Fire Resistance (European Classification) Fire resistance standard : TS EN 13501-1 Burn : B1 Smoke : s1 Fall of particles or burning drips : d0 Fire Resistance (UK Classification) It is more resistant to fire than Class 0 according to the UK Building Regulation, Document B2, Chapter 6. According to this regulation, Class 0 corresponds to; Burning : B class, Smoke : s3 Fall of particles or burning drips : d2. As it can be inferred from above; Being better than Class 0 as specified by United Kingdom Building Regulation proves that the material characteristics of BETOPAN boards in European Standards (i.e. B1, s1, d0) are better than many products and rank higher in classifications. Thermal insulation A BETOPAN layer of 1 cm in thickness provides the same thermal insulation as a 10 cm thick concrete. Thermal insulation provided by a 8.4 cm thick sandwich wall covered with BETOPAN on both surfaces can be equal to that provided by 39 cm thick insulated air bricks. Crash and Impact Resistance The material has the highest resistance to impact and crash among similar materials. Machine Processibility BETOPAN allows inserting lamps, opening grooves and bushings; it can be drilled and cut.
Lightness It is a light material. For example, 10 mm thick BETOPAN weighs 13 kg/m2. Moisture Resistance The product swells by 1.5% at maximum when immersed in water for 24 hours. So it exhibits superior resistance features in moist environments compared to other similar materials (e.g. hardboard, MDF, plasterboard, OSB). Airborne Sound Insulation TS EN 13986 ARTICLE 5.10 Sound transmission loss (R) in 1 kHz - 3 kHz range, 29 dB for 10 mm 32 dB 18 mm Sound Absorption TS EN 13986 ARTICLE 5.11 Sound Absorption Coefficient: Between 250 Hz - 500 Hz: 0.10 Between 1000 Hz - 2000 Hz: 0.30 Resistance to Biological Agents Thanks to its high alkalinity (pH 11-13) and density, BETOPAN is resistant to environmental factors and biological agent. Its susceptibility to fungus and mold was tested in above-the-ground and buried conditions in extremely moist areas. No mold or fungus was detected on boards above the ground; some molding traces were detected on boards after remaining buried under the ground for 8 years. However, this deterioration remains at 0.9 mm thickness on the surface. The insect infestation test conducted in open air revealed that the boards were not affected by insects. Seismic Resistance Lightness of BETOPAN transfers less load to the supports of the building enhancing the seismic resistance of the building. Fire Resistance BETOPAN boards have fire-stop characteristics. Movement related to Ambient Moisture and Temperature Wooden material moves depending on the ambient moisture. Similarly, set cement and concrete move as the ambient moisture changes. The movement rate of BETOPAN is less than that of wood and more than that of set cement. The structure of BETOPAN is much more homogenous and the tension it creates is much less than wood; the direction and amount of movement can be predicted, and the disadvantages can be prevented by painting and attaching methods. During the applications, BETOPAN boards must be painted with preferably a silicone-based, alkaline-resistant paint. With the impact of paint, movement will diminish, but will not be completely eliminated. Thus the boards must be affixed by a method that will allow linear movement. This will completely prevent formal movements such as hollowing and swelling up of the surface.

2 - OUR PRODUCTS
Manufactured since 1984 and the favorite member of the family, BETOPAN is manufactured from a mixture of wood, cement and chemical additives not harmful to health. It derives its lightness, elasticity and processibility from wood; its resistance to water, moisture, fire and decay from cement, and serves the users with superior structural qualities. Standard Production Dimensions: Thickness : 08/10/12/14/16/18/20/24/30 mm Width : 1250 mm Length : 2500 / 2800 / 3000 mm Custom : It is possible to MANUFACTURE boards in other thicknesses and to CUT them in custom widths and lengths.
Short Particle and Cement Layer Long Particle and Cement Layer
Launched in 2001 as the first Plus product, BETOPANPLUS was created by covering both sides of the first product BETOPAN with a mixture that does not include particles but natural minerals and cement. This resulted in a board which moves very little due to relative humidity, is as resistant to external factors as high-quality concrete, and allows the application of all paints applicable on concrete. Standard Production Dimensions: Thickness : 08/10/12/14/16/18/20/24/30 mm Width : 1250 mm Length : 2500 / 2800 / 3000 mm Custom : It is possible to MANUFACTURE boards in other thicknesses and to CUT them in custom widths and lengths.

It is a variation of BETOPANPLUS which has a non-textured surface and an exterior faade product. YALIPAN was inspired from the warm outlook that wood gives to faades. YALIPAN adds the Wooden Texture to the superior qualities of the Plus group products, which has led to the creation of a building material that is insect-proof and does not decay or require constant maintenance unlike wood. YALIPAN has a European Fire Rating A2, d1, s0. Standard Production Dimensions: Thickness : 10 / 12 mm Width : 1250 mm Length : 3000 mm Custom : It is possible to MANUFACTURE boards in other thicknesses and to CUT them in custom widths and lengths.
The latest product added to the Plus group, TASONIT was inspired from STONE, the oldest construction material in use for ages. TASONIT has the same outlook as stone applied on faades, but relieves the building from the heaviness of natural stone that creates weight on the faade and may fall down in time. TASONIT has also the superior qualities of the Plus group products which have European Fire Rating A2, d1, s0. Standard Production Dimensions: Thickness : 12 mm Width : 1250 mm Length : 3000 mm Custom : It is possible to MANUFACTURE boards in other thicknesses and to CUT them in custom widths and lengths.

This guide mainly deals with the applications of BETOPAN and also the spaces that allow the use of BETOPANPLUS in the same applications. BETOPAN is the cement board manufactured as a functional product that can be used in all interior and exterior spaces of a building from foundation to roof. Our boards are not only durable, light and widely available; but can also be used in various areas other than the main intended usage in the construction sector (poultry-houses, greenhouses, fishing, etc. in which food based health is priority), which increases the number of reasons for preference. Before explaining our applications, we will touch upon some points that require attention during assembly in the subsequent pages.
16
4. 1 - CUTTING PROCESS
The best way to minimize defects is to conduct the cutting process at the factory. However, it is sometimes necessary to cut the material into the required dimensions on site since the design is not known in advance and requires precise cutting and assembly. Such cutting processes are conducted on portable or stable cutting benches, with ARTIFICIAL DIAMOND BLADE and HARD METAL BLADE SAWS. (Picture 3) Since our Plus Group products are more durable and solid, the corners on the edges of the boards may not be smooth after individual cutting. So our company recommends that such edges should be FINISHED. (Picture 4) Standard Masks and Goggles should be worn during the cutting process. (Picture 5-6)
Picture 3
Picture 6 Picture 4

4. 2 - SCREWING PROCESS
Screwing is easy, however there are certain points that require attention:
Picture 7
First, the screwing slots should be determined and marked on the board that will be assembled. (Picture 7) On the marked slots, body holes will be drilled, and then countersinks will be created with a diameter wider than screw diameter, which enable the screw head to be embedded in the board. Countersinks must enable the screw head to be embedded in the board surface for 2-3 mm. Excessive force should not be applied in order to fasten the screw during the screwing process. Such excessive pressure not only runs the risk of cracking the board, but also causes the screw to get jammed and prevent the movement of the boards. (Picture 8) Screws must be inserted vertically to the surface during the screwing process. (Picture 9)

4. 3 - PAINTING PROCESS
The Technical Support Department of our company can offer help when necessary before the painting process. Our company recommends that standard masks and goggles should be worn during the painting process. Our company is not liable for the damages that may arise as a result of non-compliance with the instructions in the Painting section. Since our company does not authorize any paint manufacturer to produce paints under the name BETOPAN Paint, it is not liable for the damages that may arise from the use of such products.

Application
Application starts by assembling U, C, H or Box profiles (Picture 1415-16) with appropriate spacing (with maximum 625 mm distance from axis to axis depending on the dimensions of the product) in order to form the bearing structure of the wall in the space where the partition wall will be built. After these construction elements are robustly assembled, INSULATION MATERIAL can optionally be placed among them from profile to profile. (Picture 17)

PARTITION WALL APPLICATIONS BY USING OMEGA PROFILE: the first board of our BETOPAN or BETOPANPLUS products will be affixed to the bearing profiles by using a DRYWALL SCREW. It is recommended to use our boards with maximum 625 mm width in this application. When the other edge of BETOPAN board reaches the second profile, OMEGA PROFILE will be affixed so as to be placed on the bearing profiles. Omega Profile will be affixed to the second bearing profile so as to take one edge of BETOPAN under its wing. Like the first screwed BETOPAN board, one edge of which was fastened under one wing of the Omega Profile; another BETOPAN board will be similarly fastened under the other wing of the Omega Profile, and the second Omega Profile will be affixed when the edge of the second board reaches the third bearing profile in the same way. The Omega application performed by affixing the omega profiles to the Bearing profiles and affixing BETOPAN boards under the wings of the Omega profiles is completed by covering the visible screws on the grooves of Omega profiles by using PVC based Omega Tapes (Picture 18). Then paint can be applied if desired. (Picture 19).

Application
The application of cladding partition walls by using BETOPAN and BETOPANPLUS boards starts with the affixation of box profiles at sufficient spacing on the walls (not wider than 625 mm from axis to axis depending on the product dimensions) (Picture 20). Affixation will be performed on the plumb line and scale of these profiles, with special hollow brick plugs especially in air bricks, so that the end of the plug enters the second hollow of the brick and gets clamped on the second wall of the brick. After this, INSULATION MATERIAL can be placed from profile to profile if desired. (Picture 21-22) IF CLADDING IS TO BE PERFORMED ON AN EXISTING WALL: Instructions for Partition Wall Applications by using Omega Profiles (Article 6-1) will be applied for a single surface of the wall this time. In such cladding, sound sealing tapes will not be necessary as long as there are no holes on the existing wall. (Picture 23-24)

Application
In order to perform intermediate cladding on exterior faade walls before the application of the final product by using BETOPAN and BETOPANPLUS boards, which are necessary from time to time, the application starts with the affixation of box profiles at sufficient spacing on the walls (not wider than 625 mm from axis to axis depending on the product dimensions). After these profiles are robustly assembled in the plumb line and scale, INSULATION MATERIAL can be placed between them from profile to profile if desired. (Picture 25) a IF BETOPAN OR BETOPANPLUS ARE TO BE APPLIED ON BOX PROFILES; edges of Betopan boards will be screwed by SMART END DRYWALL SCREWS, at a slot whose distance to the middle axis of the box profile is equal to 0.1% of the length of the board placed at the same direction as the profile. In this way, the space between two BETOPAN boards will be equal to 0.1% of the total length of the boards. This space can be reduced to 0.05% in Betopanplus applications. This is why BETOPANPLUS is recommended for such applications. Application will be completed by pasting the final layer cladding material to be applied on the faade on BETOPAN or affixing the material to the bearing construction composed of box profiles. When this is done by pasting, movement joint must be left among the cladding materials pasted on the boards over the board joints, with a width at least equal to the width of board joints. b IF APPLICATION IS TO BE PERFORMED BY USING M PROFILE ON BOX PROFILE, M profiles will be affixed to the middle axes of box profiles. M Profile spacing must be maximum 625 mm, and also the affixation of Box profiles must have been performed on the same principles. Betopan boards will be screwed on both arms of M Profiles by using POINTED-END DRYWALL SCREWS, so that the distance between the edges is equal to 0.1% of the sum of the lengths of the boards on both sides. This space can be reduced to 0.05% in Betopanplus applications. A board must not be screwed on both arms of an M Profile. If the final layer cladding material to be applied on the faade is to be pasted, THE movement joint must be left among the cladding materials pasted on the boards over the board joints, with a width at least equal to the width of board joints.

5. 4 - CONSTRUCTION OF MEZZANINES
Intermediate floor application is a commonly employed method for creating intermediate floor spaces in small spaces where heavy construction will not be conducted.
Picture 26
Application
In such applications, assembly starts with fixing the bearers of the intermediate floor (Picture 26). Load bearing, spacing, stretching, etc. must be considered in the construction of intermediate floor, and the bearing construction is assembled with appropriate spacing (Picture 27). Main cover of the bearing construction will be completed by placing metal sheets or other covers of different thicknesses depending on calculations, followed by absolutely necessary elements such as sound or heat insulation, or details such as installation. Betopan boards of the necessary thickness and dimensions (at least 16 mm) are placed on this cover and the assembly is completed (Picture 28). Bearing construction spacing and the thickness of BETOPAN must be chosen in accordance with the Load Distribution Table given in the next page. Bearers must be present under all edges of the BETOPAN boards used (Picture 29-30). Final layer covering material (carpet, PVC, flooring, etc.) can be applied at users choice. If the covering material to be applied is not airtight (e.g. carpet), a type of finishing must be applied on BETOPAN boards such as polyethylene, etc. which balances water vapor before the covers are placed.

1) These are the final load bearing capacities calculated in consideration of material safety coefficient, coefficients of irregularities that may arise from loading, and the critical displacement ratio (L/360) according to TS 500. It indicates the total value of plate weight and live load. Calculated values in TS 498 Chart 3 should be multiplied with the safety coefficient of 1.6 according to TS 500 and the result should be compared with the bearing capacity. For example, 314 kg/m obtained by multiplying 2 kN/m value given for house and office flooring in the second row of the chart by the coefficient 1.6, will be compared with the bearing capacity. 2) Maximum span at the longer direction is 3000 mm c.o.c. 3) Maximum span at the longer direction is 2000 mm c.o.c.
26
Application
There are several ways to make such applications, the most common of which are given below. In applications on BOX PROFILE; box profiles are fixed to the walls and the ceiling, and joined on the same level without any elevation difference, which forms a steel bearing construction. While forming this structure, profiles should be chosen in consideration of the fact that the space between the edges of Betopan boards to be used will be at least 0.05 % of the total length of the boards on both sides, and screws must be inserted at least 2.5 cm further from the edge (Picture 31). If the middle sections of the profiles affixed are painted with the same color as the color that BETOPAN boards will be painted, there will be no color difference perceptions on the visible joints after the assembly, and small workmanship defects will not be noticed. BETOPAN products will be affixed as 8 mm and with modular cutting (maximum 50 x 50 or 60 x 60 cm). Screw heads are covered by steel paste and painting is done. It is recommended to paint each surface of the boards used in interior settings at least with two layers with polyurethane-based paints (300 gm/m2) in order to minimize movement. (Picture 32)
Picture 31
Picture 32
27
Picture 33
Application
The application of raised floor systems that have a completely modular structure is based on placing modular-sized Betopan boards on metal frames borne by metal piers, creating a space underneath. BETOPAN products used in such applications are 28 and 30 mm thick, usually in 600 x 600 mm dimensions, and will be covered by PVC tapes. Finally, top and bottom coating material can be applied on the product if the user desires, which makes it ready for use (Picture 34). These panels can easily be lifted and replaced, and have high fire resistance, sound absorption and load bearing capacity (Picture 35). It is recommended to paint each surface of the boards used in interior settings at least with two layers with polyurethane-based paints (300 gm/m2) in order to minimize movement. (Picture 36)

5. 8 - COLUMN INSULATION
Steel columns must be insulated against fire in some buildings in which steel construction is used. Although steel is a material that does not easily burn, it is easily deformed and loses its bearing capacity. However, this type of buildings must meet the relevant fire standards. In such situations, BETOPAN or Betopanplus which has Euroclass Fire Rating A2, s1, d0, is used in the insulation of steel columns. (Picture 37) The points that require attention during the use of BETOPAN or Betopanplus are their thickness should be chosen so as to withstand the impacts that may arise from the design where they will be used, their values regarding fire protection shoul be chosen to meet the fire resistance specified by the regulation, and both surfaces must be coated at least with a primer (Picture 38).

5. 13 - IN THE ELEVATOR SHAFT
Walls of elevator shafts must be constructed with fire resistant material from floor to ceiling. Since walls of elevator shafts are generally made of steel construction, it is necessary to clad these walls with fire-resistant boards. BETOPAN and Betopanplus which has Euroclass Fire Rating A2, s1, d0 are generally preferred as cladding material for such spaces. Application is conducted by fixing the boards on steel construction elements.

5. 14 - IN PREFABRICATED BUILDINGS
There are different ways to apply Betopan and BETOPANPLUS boards, which are commonly used in prefabricated houses, containers, houses with steel system, and cabinets depending on the area of use. a WALL CONSTRUCTION First, sandwich panels will be constructed with the BETOPAN or BETOPANPLUS products that will be used in wall construction in prefabricated and similar applications so as to contain insulation materials in between; then these panels will be placed in the steel bearing construction s (H, C, U Profiles) of the Prefabricated Building. A primer coating and final layer paint finishing will be conducted after the application.

b FLOORING SYSTEM
Before starting the assembly of Betopan boards to be used in floor construction in prefabricated buildings, containers and similar applications, the steel structure elements that will bear the load on the floor will be assembled with appropriate spacing (should be designed according to the thickness of the Betopan boards to be placed, spaces between structures, and the maximum load planned to be borne) (Picture 53). After the completion of the works such as insulation, etc. that will be placed underneath the floor depending on the systems of companies, the application is finished by placing Betopan boards sized according to the bearing construction or chosen in standard sizes on, and sometimes in, the bearing construction (Picture 54). Then final layer covering material will be applied upon users desire (carpet, PVC, flooring, etc.). Polyethylene or similar vapor balancer will be placed under covers which allow vapor transmission, such as carpet.
