Nominal shear stress is,

According to code, the allowable shear stress on that section is,

Designs of flat-plate shear reinforcement:
At a distance 3
V36 = (252-5.5) * 294 = 72471 lb
The maximum shear which can be carried at this section, according to ACI code is,

The concrete can resists a nominal stress, c = 23000 = 110 phi , hence
