What limits do engineers apply to deflection of steel stud backed veneer? H/600 seems too stringent.

Especially when the moisture resistant barrier is not 100% and the studs corrode where the screws pierced the galvanized studs. - Total rebuild possible in the future.
There is a problem when the veneer is more rigid than the back-up.

I use L/600 per BIA generally, but in reality L/360 is just fine.

Ron, ConcMas: Should it be more stringent of H/600 & 0.3"? I mean H/600 for 20' is 0.4", is that acceptable or should 0.3" be the limit.

I thought the L/600 criteria from BIA was for in-plane deflection (e.g. a lintel beam).
