22 gage steel shear walls

[WBUW]

Does anyone have some testing values for the situation where 22 gage steel walls are used instead of standard walls?

I have a pole building I am working on where they chose to sheath the walls with this stuff.

I remember seeing some values at the other firm I was working for in an old manual of some sort, but I can't remember what it was. I remember the standard construction was something in the neighborhood of 100-110 plf capacity for the wall with girts running between the poles...

Anyone have some good tested values?

Thanks

The FBC 2004 has some values for steel sheet shear walls. Since the FBC is based on the IBC, I would look there first if you're permitted by your building code or you're using the IBC or a state code based on the IBC. See chapter 22.

The better metal suplliers should have this information....

Fabral and McElroy come to mind.
