OSB sheathing panels can be used to create horizontal diaphragms and shearwalls in order to brace buildings for wind and seismic loads. The model building codes contain the maximum allowable shear forces (plf) for structural panel for shearwalls and diaphragms include sizing the perimeter members for axial forces. Also, the connections between the diaphragm and shearwall must be engineered. The shearwall must also be adequately anchored to the supporting wall or foundation and the corners fastened down to prevent the wall from overturning under lateral loads. Please consult with your local building official for any specific requirements.
Shearwalls and diaphragm tables are referenced in SBA's OSB in Wood Frame Construction Manual and OSB Design Manual.
