The experimental study on the Behaviour of Profiled Steel Sheet Dry Board System (PSSDB) with Door Opening as load bearing wall were carried out. PSSDB is formed by Profiled Steel Sheet (BONDEK II) connected to two the dry boards (CEMBOARD) using self-tapping screws. The study of PSSDB system involved doubleskin composite walling panel. The experiment carried out was to determine the behaviour of this system under axial load. There were four samples tested with and without overlapping of profiled steel sheet. The size of sample was 600mm width and 1000mm height. The size of door opening was 186mm width and 680mm height. The parameters measured and determined were deflections, overall buckling, crushing on panel, Young’s Modulus (E) and ultimate load capacity. From the experiment, load displacement curve and stressstrain relationship were identified. The average ultimate load capacity for the overlap sample was 214kN and the ultimate load capacity for the non-overlap was 138kN.
