pretensioned member to be designed at 5000 psi
(6000 psi at the discretion of the engineer).

139.1.11 Shear Design Members should be designed
such that Vu lt f(Vc Vs) Critical section is
h/2 from face of support Shear forces at this
section are given in Table 9.1.4.2.4-1 In
reinforced concrete, ACI and AASHTO use d from
face of support, but in prestressed concrete, d
often varies due to debonding and/or harping.
Thus, h/2 is used.
