. Just make sure that the shield is up off the floor and the top is open which will create a natural, and strong, thermo-siphon and cool the air space between the shield and the wall, the "combustibles." It also minimizes heat-loss in that localized area of the wall. If you had infrared vision one could always look at a house and know where the wood stove was.
If you are safety-minded you could do two shields/air-spaces/thermo-siphons. The first shield absorbs the radiant heat of the stove and re-radiates some, which will be blocked by the second shield and then the wall will recieve very little heat, if any at all.
Most commercially built forced air wood stoves are rated at zero clearance to combustibles by using this technique ... but they use a fan instead of a thermo-siphon.

The problem is already solved, reading through this thread and my other thread about the tiny home explains exactly what I did and why it works so well. And what I was saying before is that this also follows local code, which if I just put steel sheeting over wood studs and fiberglass insulation, it would be against local code. I am a general contractor in my home state and grew up in this business, I work with inspectors and fire marshals on a daily basis, some of them are friends of mine, so the code on my end is understood and followed.
Despite a lot of bad laws out there that cost people a lot of money, most of your building code to do with wood stoves is there for a reason, because to just put steel over wood is not safe in the long term(I see this a lot on youtube, people fitting in a wood stove next to their cabinets or furniture and they just hammer and tack on a bunch of old license plates or scrap metal). The heating and cooling of wood over many years causes the structure of the wood itself to change, and the result of years of your wood studs heating up and cooling down makes it so one day with not so much heat, it can just ignite and burst into flames. There are tests you can do to prove this. Wood that has been heated and cooled can ignite very quickly and very easily. Hence the steel studs. Though fire treated studs would serve the same purpose but I do not want to be breathing in the off gassing coming from any treated wood in the house.

Yeah, but how did the squirrel get in there? Was it because of the tiny ad?
