IBC 2009-Wood shear wall aspect ratio

[WWTEng]

IBC 06 had this table @ 2305.3.4. But I couldn't find an aspect ratio table in 09. Was it moved or should we be using NDS?

Per the 2009 IBC Section 2305.1 "...designed and constructed in accordance with AF&PA SDPWS..." Look in the AF&PA SDPWS for the ratio information. It is a free view only download from

It is in the SDPWS. Most of this information is moving out of the IBC/IRC and into the reference material.
