-This command will calculate the shear strength of a panel. The command will provided results for 4 different shear equations (ACI 318-08, Wood1990, ​Barda1972 ​and UB emprical) as well as the boundary conditions for Wood and ACI 318-08 equations. The model data will be used to calculate the appropriate height,​width and areas for each shear equations. The rest of the data will be provided by the user in the arguments of the command. ​   +This command will calculate the shear strength of a panel. The command will provided results for 4 different shear equations (ACI 318-08, Wood1990, ​Barda1977 ​and Gulec-Whittaker2009 ​) as well as the boundary conditions for Wood and ACI 318-08 equations. The model data will be used to calculate the appropriate height,​width and areas for each shear equation. The rest of the data will be provided by the user in the arguments of the command. ​Any optional argument left blank will be set to 0 by default. The shear command uses the models gravity definition to determine of the model is in metric or English units. ​ The user should provide the arguments in the units specified below based on the model. The results of the shear equations will will be reported in kips or kN

-  * panel - panel number. If panel = 0 shear will be calculated for all panels defined by the user.+  * panel - panel number. If panel = 0 shear will be calculated for all panels defined by the user and reported in a space separated table with the shear equation results for each panel on a rowThe columns of the table are panel number, upper bound, (ACI 318-08), Wood(1990), lower bound, Barda(1977),​ Gulec-Whittaker(2009) ​
   * fc - compressive strength (ksi or kN/​m<​sup>​2</​sup>​)   * fc - compressive strength (ksi or kN/​m<​sup>​2</​sup>​)

   * bre - boundary element reinforcement area (ft<​sup>​2</​sup>​ or m<​sup>​2</​sup>​)   * bre - boundary element reinforcement area (ft<​sup>​2</​sup>​ or m<​sup>​2</​sup>​)

 +**Note(s)**:​ Gulec-Whittaker2009 is sensitive to the panel Height/​Length aspect ratio. If UB is reporting a panel an ultimate shear close to Barda(1977) or ACI 318-08 results the panel has an extreme aspect ratio and the user should split that panel into more panels.
