... G-1 APPENDIX G: Evaluation of Proposed Simplified Provisions with Selected Shear Database In this appendix, the proposed simplified shear design provisions are evaluated and validated using with test data. In Section G.1, the overall performance and safety of the proposed simplified provisions (Vtest/Vprop)

... G-2 By contrast with the AASHTO STD results, use of the LRFD shear design specifications results in strength predictions, Fig. G-2, that provide safe and accurate estimates of measured capacities for both RC and PC members, with no observable trends for the four selected test parameters.
From page 191...
... G-3 In order to appreciate the basis for the selection of the proposed cwV expression, it is useful to examine the scatter in the shear strength of PC members without shear reinforcement, vA . In such tests, the ultimate capacity is directly dependent on cV and, based on observations, that capacity typically occurs shortly after diagonal cracking has developed.
