is sheet metal screw a lag crew or wood screw? what should be the formula?
 
Neither. You would need to check out an ICC ES report or similar or call the manufacturer for values in this situation.

As EOR's we should take the responsibility to design our structures to support the components we allow in our design per that industry standards.
