I am looking for input on the use of wood panel shearwalls as a lateral force resisting system in conjunction with structural steel gravity framing. Can anybody tell me whether they have used this combination, or whether there are any restrictions on it in the IBC? Thank you!

Thanks for that. Here's a star... Hopefully the clarification will be in 2009.
