In the NDS, you can choos a value for the shear stress factor anywhere between CH=1.0 to 2.0. What are other engineers using out there in practice for newly designed structures? I know that AF&PA plans to drop the shear stress factor but I don't know which way they will go (always 1.0 or always 2.0).
