by.genie.uottawa.caseismic design shear forces. Seismic design shear Ve in plastic hinge regions is associated with maximum inelastic moments that can develop at the ends of members when the longitudinal tension reinforcement is in the strain hardening range (assumed to develop 1.25 fy). This moment level is labeled as probable flexural strength, Mpr. Figure 6-1 ...
