Locating Walls in a new building

[d6wong]

I've heard that:

"walls should not be located along the building's main column lines"

Can someone tell me why?

Thanks

If you have CMU walls partially bracing columns you will end up with a stiffer element than anticipated, thus attracting higher lateral loads to the column that may lead to a shear failure.
