The shear resistance <strong>of</strong> this mechanism was evaluated following <strong>the</strong> prescriptions<br />

subjected to axial forces <strong>and</strong> with transverse reinforcement, Vjoint,ccf, is evaluated as<br />

strength <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> transverse reinforcement Vs, where:<br />
