Shear formulas in code consider truss analogy and compute diagonal strengths
In conditions where construction joints interfere, especially where diagonal tension is not likely, eg at base of shear walls, code says check frictional shear transfer and use longitudinal reinf to resist shear.
I have a situation in between. A beam column connection say 2ft deep(60cm).The load is only 1/2 ft(15 cm) away from column face.It is a large point load
Diagonal crack is not likely and construction involves no construction joint
Can I rely on tension reinforcement and concrete to resist shear or should I add more stirrups as if diagonal tension?

I know all that. But I want to know why? And why should I ignore the fact that the distance from point load to support is almost none?
Do you want to elaborate?
