Shear Capacity in Number of Connectors in Bridges Formulas

The shear capacity is the ability to resist forces that cause the material’s internal structure to slide against itself. It can be measured in either the vertical or horizontal direction. And is denoted by V_u. Shear Capacity is usually measured using the Kilonewton for Force. Note that the value of Shear Capacity is always positive.
