Need Shearwall Nailing Schedule (table)

[m dalton]

Shear walls are meant to resist a given force, so nailing, holddowns and sheathing and thickness can vary in each and every connection / location.

So my question is How much force are you trying to resist?

If you don't know and do not know how to calculate it, then how can you assign value to it?

Like richard said "It is and would be better left to a structural engineer!

I have a Shear table that I use that was design by my structural engineer. He locates the shear walls (redlines) on my drawings and references back to the schedule. In that schedule it calls out the force /energy it is designed to resist in foot pounds.

This schedule has about 30-40 different types of shear walls type (exterior, interior, with and without holddowns, sheathing type (plywood, OSB, Gyp. Board, etc.), fastener type (nails, screws etc.) and spacing.
