If 𝜏v is the nominal shear stress, 𝜏c is design shear strength of concrete and 𝜏c,max is the maximum design shear strength of concrete, which of the following statement is correct?

  1. If 𝜏v > 𝜏cmax, section is to be designed for shear
  2. If 𝜏v > 𝜏cmax, minimum shear reinforcement is to be provided.
  3. If 𝜏v > 𝜏c, minimum shear reinforcement is to be provided. (Ans)
  4. If 𝜏v > 𝜏c, minimum shear reinforcement is to be provided.
