Class Description-
It's easy to get caught up thinking of plywood or OSB in terms of shear walls, especially in California. However, wood structural panels play a part in various building systems, no matter what type of wood you are using. This session walks through the different ways a designer may be using sheathing as well as detailing that can have a big impact on the building's final performance.
