Light Gauge Metal over Wood Framing
Light Gauge Metal over Wood Framing
(OP)
I'm looking for shearwall/diaphragm values for using corrugated metal 24-29ga panels over wood framing. I've had several inquiries for structures like this as the price of steel has risen dramatically. The IBC has tables for wood panels over light gauge steel framing but not the other way around. I've contacted a couple of building suppliers but they had no such data. Still, they sell "pre-engineered" building systems, go figure. Thanks for any info.
