I am looking for information on shear bars in a monolithic slab on grade.
 
Not used or commonly required. What unique loading causes the need?
 
You can provide u-loop shear reinforcement, J-hooks, or even structural steel shapes. However, the increase in labor costs will be of greater concern than simply deepen the concrete mat directly under the concentrate load locally, if possible.
