Therefore, there is no overturning, and tie straps are not required at the ends of the
shear panels. This would not be the case if the panel height were greater than 4 ft.
Three types of shear panels are commonly used and included in most typical detail
topics. Each of these details will be checked for capacity vs. demand for the previous
