Section 11.2.8.2 Minimum Shear Reinforcement

For sections with multiple values of f'_c, the maximum f'_c is used to calculate the minimum shear requirements.

The minimum shear reinforcement area is calculated using equation 11-1:

A_{v} = 0.06 \sqrt{{f^{'}}_{c}} \frac{b_{w} s}{f_{y}}

The effective web width b_w is calculated as the maximum shear core width in each axis.
