I think it's a great product for buildings where only low capacity shear walls are needed or where shear resistance is provided by other means. Similar to you, I used this for some exterior walls that I reconstructed at my house. The low shear capacity in my case was more than adequate and likely much higher than the existing horizontal sheathing boards that I replaced. While setting the pieces and nailing them (by myself) was a pain, the fact that the product provides insulation, sheathing, and a vapor barrier in one product makes it well worth it. I made sure to take the time to properly seal and tape all the joints (which perhaps a contractor wouldn't have been so diligent with). The finished product resulted in a significantly more energy efficient space. I used the particular product with 1" of insulation and 1/2" sheathing.bookowski said:What's the beef against zip-r?
