Regulations 2026 · TBDY-2018 · Zoning Code

Earthquake Code 2026: What has changed?

The application notice in force since 1 March 2026 tightens the design of reinforced concrete buildings, and the July 2026 zoning code amendment adds new requirements for new projects. TBDY-2018 remains in force. CL-Therm is designed to the Turkish timber building regulation and TBDY-2018.

TBDY Application Notice · 01.03.2026

Stricter rules for reinforced concrete

The 2026 notice sets new minimum requirements for shear walls and column dimensions in reinforced concrete projects: multi-storey RC buildings with BYS ≤ 6 need shear walls in both directions, and a column’s long side may be at most 1.5 times its short side.

These requirements are defined for reinforced concrete, not for load-bearing timber wall systems. CL-Therm is designed to the timber building regulation.

Earthquake physics

Lighter building, lower seismic force

The horizontal seismic force on a building is proportional to its mass. Heavy structures have to resist larger forces.

Timber walls weigh far less than reinforced concrete. This reduces the seismic load on the structure.

Zoning Code · RG 33297 · 01.07.2026

Safety and energy: always the current rules

Even for buildings started within 2 years of the permit, the measures required by current law on fire, earthquake, thermal and moisture insulation, environment and energy efficiency are mandatory.

CL-Therm integrates the insulation into the wall section. The efficiency target (EKB A/B) is planned together with the wall system.

Zoning Code · Article 34

Lift space from 3 storeys

Except for single-unit homes, buildings with 3 storeys must now reserve space for a lift.

CL-Therm walls are made in the factory for each project from the architect’s plan. Lift shaft and openings are in the production plan from the start.

For information only; not legal or engineering advice. The structural compliance of each project is documented by a licensed engineer under current law. As of September 2026.

FAQ

CL-THERM & timber construction – explained

Who is BOI Bau Orkestra International?

BOI Bau Orkestra International (also “Bauorkestra”) is a construction technology company based in Istanbul-Beşiktaş. BOI stands for AI-supported, high-tech load-bearing wall panel systems of superior quality – going well beyond classic timber construction. BOI brings the CL-THERM system to Türkiye and also delivers projects on a turnkey basis – from consultation and planning through delivery of the wall panels to the ready-to-use building. BOI works with world brands such as Lamborghini.

What is CL-THERM?

CL-THERM is a prefabricated, load-bearing and insulated timber wall element: cross-glued solid timber ribs in spruce/fir (C24), Lignatherm wood-fibre insulation in between and SWP cover layers on both sides. Wall thicknesses 160–320 mm, elements up to 16 m wide – CE certified (1359-CPR-0902) under ETA-25/1030.

What are prefabricated timber walls and what are their advantages?

Prefabricated timber walls are precision-made in the factory and only assembled on site. This shortens construction time, makes building largely independent of the weather and ensures consistent quality. With CL-THERM the insulation is already integrated – with a U-value of 0.366 to 0.168 W/(m²·K) depending on thickness, and down to 0.12 W/(m²·K) with additional external wood-fibre insulation.

Are CL-THERM timber walls suitable for earthquake zones?

Yes. CL-THERM can be designed to Eurocode 8 (EN 1998-1) for static and quasi-static actions including earthquakes. Timber is much lighter than reinforced concrete – less mass means lower seismic forces. The structural verification according to TBDY-2018 is carried out by the project’s structural engineer.

How fire-resistant are CL-THERM timber walls?

Load-bearing CL-THERM walls achieve up to 120 minutes of fire resistance depending on wall thickness and lining – REI 120 to EN 13501-2, known in Germany as F120. Solid timber chars in a controlled way: the char layer on the surface protects the inner section, so load-bearing capacity is maintained for a long time. The charring rate is 0.65 mm/min to EN 1995-1-2, reaction-to-fire class D-s2, d0 (EN 13501-1). In Türkiye the required fire resistance period is set by the Turkish fire protection regulation (Binaların Yangından Korunması Hakkında Yönetmelik).

Which buildings is timber construction with CL-THERM suitable for?

Detached houses and villas, apartment buildings, offices and commercial buildings, schools and public buildings, as well as rooftop extensions where the low dead weight matters most – in service classes 1 and 2.
