Notes on
AISI Design Methods for Sheathing Braced Design
of Wall Studs in Compression
B.W. Schafer
report to AISI-COFS Design Methods Committee
April 2008
Overview
• Part of the AISI-COFS funded project on the design
of sheathed walls with dis-similar sheathing.
• Presentation developed from a report of the same
name
• Project updates, including full report available at
www.ce.jhu.edu/bschafer/sheathedwalls
• Report covers
– Design methods via 1962, 1980-2004, 2007 AISI
– Examination of sheathing stiffness ‘k’
– Initial summary of known demands and limit states on a
sheathed wall stud in compression

When sheathing k matters?
• If ksheathing<10kfastener... probably matters

Getting past flexure...
• Support of the stud exists for other DOF as well, and in some
cases preliminary characterization has been done
