Criteria for the testing of wall sheathing for load-bearing steel studs / D.L. Tarlton ; in collaboration with R.M. Schuster and A.S. Zakrzewski.: NH17-158/1990E-PDF
"The parameters which influence the structural design of stud wall systems dependent on sheathing for bracing are best determined directly from racking tests of full scale wall panels. However small-scale tests can be substituted, giving results which are usually conservative. The development of small-scale test criteria has been achieved, "Criteria for Conducting and Recording Small-Scale Tests of Steel Stud Wall Panels", in specification format, appears as Appendix A. The testing criteria can be used to determine or confirm sheathing parameters for use in the design of load-bearing steel stud wall systems. A test standard, based on the criteria contained in this report, by Canadian Standards Association (CSA) or Canadian General Standards Board (CGSB) is feasible"--Abstract.
