the osb and the 2x6's at the joints, carry the load. shear strength and racking strength, are almost 3 times that of a stick built wall. plus way more efficient.

It would probably be easier if you googled sip panels, to get info..the panels I have are blank 4x8 ones. You can get tons of info, and read at your leisure. I could sell up to 35 panels. If you bought them I could show you detailed instruction on how to install. They are very easy to...
