The 2003 IBC has tables for nominal shear values for light-gauge steel framed walls with plywood or gypsum sheathing, but it doesn't have similar tables for roof diaphragms. I have plywood deck over cold-formed steel joists, but I can't find any load tables (or any direction at all) in the 2003 IBC. Does anybody have any suggestions for finding these values?
Interestingly enough, the 2006 IBC has taken out the shear wall tables, too, telling you to check out AISI's standard for lateral design. Thanks a lot, IBC!
