TESTING FACILITIES
Georgia-Pacific's major research and development center, a showplace for the nation's gypsum industry, is located at Tigard, Oregon.
The two adjacent structures, with 16,868 square feet of floor area, are equipped with many types of research and testing devices.
Quality control is an important factor in the type of product that Georgia-Pacific markets. Staff technicians develop and continually check G-P gypsum products such as Tile Backer Board, Insulating Boards, Vinyl Surfaced Eternawall and other products including w<nl and ceiling systems, plasters, pottery and metal moulding plasters and agricultural gyp sum for farm use.
G-P developed the use of glass fibers to strengthen gyp sumboard, high strength Densite piaster and special lath for veneer plaster, and t e lab is carrying on a vigorous product development pro ;ram.
The technical department :onducts field and manufacturing plant services, solving dii cult technical problems and de velops improved manufac jring methods.
Gypsum products are tested several ways at the Tigard lab. Gypsumboards are subjected to severe stresses and ex treme temperatures to make stronger and more fire resist ant gypsum products.
Sound tests are conducted to develop wall and floor/celfing systems to assure "sound privacy" for today's residential and commercial construction.
WARRANTY
The assemblies and information in this brochure have been developed based on practical construction methods.
However, since the Georgia-Pacific Gypsum Division does not have any prior knowledge of a specific building design and its construction or the methods of application used with its products, no warranty of performance is made. All test results have been obtained under controlled laboratory testing conditions where environmental variables are re duced to a minimum. In the field, such laboratory conditions are not always met, since many other variables may be in troduced. Laboratory results may exceed field test results *>ut the laboratory tests under controlled conditions are the only logical way to compare the performance of different assemblies.
The Gypsum Division of the Georgia-Pacific Corporation Snakes no warranty that the performance of assemblies in the field will have a performance equal to or better than that developed in the test.
LIMITATIONS
Georgia-Pacific interior gypsumboards are non-load bear ing panels. Regular Gypsumboard panels are not rec ommended for use under extremely moist conditions. G-P "iie Backer Board is to be used m bathrooms or other high moisture areas. v4" gypsumboard should only be used as an application over existing walls or as the first layer in a sound rated system. Maximum framing spacing for gypsumboard up to 3/a" thick is 16" on center. Maximum f'aming spacing for Vi" and Vt" panels is 24" on center. Because of tne Imitations of manufacturing equipment, the maximum length available m gypsumboard is 16 feet.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
G-P REGULAR GYPSUMBOARD
G-P Regular Gypsurrktard is faced with a strong, cream colored paper which will accommodate almost any type of decorative treatment. The back paper, which is gray, is as strong as ths (ace
paper. The Vs" and %" gypsumboard Tapered Round edges ere recommended for single layer
aoplication m new construction. They are designed to be reinforced with G-P Joint System prod ucts resulting in a smooth, seamless surface. Square edges are recommended for use where exposed joints art acceptable. The resistance to fire exposure and und transmission increass with the use of greater board thickness end the number of layers of oard used. Bevel edge can be used where e panel effect is desired.

G-P FIRESTOr ' GYPSUMBOARD
G-P Flrestop develops 45 minute to 3 hour fire resistant ratings in various wood and steel will and floor/ceiling assemblies. Unexpended vermieulite in the core balances gypsum shrinkage by expanding when noosed to heat while the textile glass filaments keep the core intact tvtn after the chemically combined water has been released. The results are a thermal stabilized core.

TAPERED EDGE:
The tapered edge was originally called the "recessed edge" but Is now commonly ' called tapered, because of the incline from the edge to about 2* Into the board. This taper allows for tape and Joint treatment * to be applied and the completed Job will beflat smooth and monolithic. . . .
BEVELED EDGE:

The beveled edge is a suitable edge to give a paneled effect After fasteners are covered with a compound the board is ready for paint with grooves exposed.
TAPERED w/ROUND EDGE:
r-- r
Georgia-Pacific round edge {PE) gypsum-
board can be used for wall and ceilings in both new construction and remodeling, it is designed to reduce the beading and ridg ing problems commonly associated with standard type gypsumboard. This edge for mation provides a stronger, more rigid Joint, and results in a smoother wall surface.
"T & G" EDGE:
Georgia-Pacific's "tongue and groove" edge Is used on 2' wide sheathing and bacher boards.
SQUARE EDGE:
MODIFIED BEVELED EDGE:
The gypsumboard square edge was the. original waiiboard edge. Initially designed to be a base with a final covering such as wallpaper, paneling, or tile, square edge can be finished with joint compounds to form a dean monothic wall suitable for paint Also can be used where an exposed Joint is desired.
The modified beveled edge is available only on Eternawall'" panels. This particular edge more readily accommodates the vinyl sur face decoration, which is delivered com pletely edge wrapped. The vinyl surface
material is available in 15 standard patterns and colors and 15 new colors and textures.
JOINT SYSTEM PRODUCTS
G-P Joint System products are designed to conceal joints and nail heads and "surface-weld" gypsumboard panels to gether. Properly used, these products assure smooth, seam
less appearance of walls and ceilings, with joints as strong as the gypsumboard itself.
G-P BEDDING COMPOUND
Bedding Compound is designed to provide maximum ad hesion of tape to the joints and for initial application to nail heads and corner bead. It spreads smoothly and may be
