This　paper　presents　the　experimental　results　of　an　innovative　configuration　for　cold-formed　steel　(CFS)　framed　shear　walls　using　corrugated　steel　sheets　as　sheathing　material.　The　shear　wall　configuration　comprises　corrugated　steel　sheathings　placed　inside　the　steel　framing　and　therefore　is　known　as　an　in-frame　or　sheet-in　shear　wall.　The　innovative　shear　wall　configuration　is　noncombustible,　is　equal　in　thickness　to　adjacent　walls,　and　avoids　the　difficulties　inherent　in　the　design　and　installation　of　the　finish　materials　used　in　common　corrugated　steel　sheathed　shear　walls.　The　test　program　in　this　research　comprised　cyclic　testing　of　five　groups　of　shear　walls　in　which　the　stud　arrangement,　sheathing　continuity,　framing　thickness,　and　wall　aspect　ratio　varied.　The　results　indicate　that　shear　walls　with　a　lower-profiled　field　stud　and　continuous　sheathing　had　satisfactory　performance　with　balanced　shear　strength　and　ease　of　assembly.　Based　on　the　test　data,　shear　resistances　of　in-frame　or　sheet-in　shear　walls　with　corrugated　steel　sheathing　under　seismic　load　are　recommended　as　the　basis　for　design.　These　innovative　shear　walls　exhibited　substantially　higher　shear　capacity　than　code-certified　shear　walls,　and　therefore　can　be　used　as　a　substitute　for　a　lateral　force-resisting　system　in　midrise　CFS　light-framed　buildings.
