Racking Shear Evaluation of Proprietary Sheathing Materials Attached to Light-frame Wall Construction or Code-complying Sheathing Attached to Light-framed Walls with Proprietary Fasteners

 
AC269 establishes guidelines for racking shear evaluation of proprietary sheathing materials attached to wood- or steel-framed walls, and code-complying sheathing attached to wood- or steel-framed walls, used as lateral force-resisting elements or braced wall panels on buildings of Type V construction.
WJE laboratories are accredited by ANAB (ISO/IEC 17025) to perform testing standard ICC-ES AC269 for Racking Shear Evaluation of Proprietary Sheathing Materials Attached to Light-frame Wall Construction or Code-complying Sheathing Attached to Light-framed Walls with Proprietary Fasteners.
