(OP)
Anyone know where I can find information on steel stud and plywood as a shear wall?

RE: Steel Stud Shear Walls

Residential Steel Framing Handbook
Robert Scharff

Wood Engineering and Construction Handbook
Faherty and Williamson

both McGraw Hill books.

Search Plywood and APA EWS in google as well.

RE: Steel Stud Shear Walls

I don't have my copy with me, but I believe that the UBC contains tables for plywood on metal stud shear walls in the light-gage steel section.

RE: Steel Stud Shear Walls

I think IBC has this also.
