In the 2003 IBC Table 2306.4.5 gives allowable shear for Gypsum Board on framed walls. Footnote a. states that the values are for SDC A,B, and C. I don't see anywhere in the code that specifically prohibits use of gyp board for shear resistance in SDC D. Is it permitted in SDC D? And where is it in the code? If it is permitted what are the allowable values?
