Sheer capacity reinforced masonry

(OP)
Can anyone shed some light on why there is a reduction in strength to the reinforcement component in the shear design check for masonry in the AS3700?

I think it might be that the direction of the potential cracks will not be perpendicular to the reinforcement.
