Inclusion of Gypsum Capacity for Tall Walls (Bug 2447)

When using imperial units, if the height of a wall was greater than > 3.6 m with gypsum sheathing, the capacity of the wall was not zero as it should be according to CSA O86 Table 9.5.4 note 2. When using metric units, the capacity was zero as it should be. This has been corrected.
