Novel structural shear panels used for construction of shear walls and shear diaphragms, as well as sheathings and deckings, and similar constructions, where the structural shear panels have novel shapes formed in a grid pattern, comprised of an ordered series of voids, and material in the form of a grid, called grid pattern structural shear panels, where the ordered series of voids reduce the amount of raw material and weight in said grid pattern structural shear panels, and the material in the form of a grid is configured so that it resists the design loads required for the structural use of said grid pattern structural shear panels, and is also configured so that it provides a surface for the connection of said grid pattern structural shear panels to framing members and other building components by the means of fasteners, consistent with standardized construction industry spacings for said fasteners, and where said ordered series of voids provides points of graspability throughout the plane of said grid pattern structural shear panels, as well as the benefits of ventilation, visibility, the passage of light, and facilitates the penetration of small conduits throughout the plane of said grid pattern structural shear panels, without interrupting said material in the form of a grid.
