Design values for transversal shear force apply for one pair of RVL wire rope loops (one
wire rope loop on each side of the joint). Distance between wire rope loop pairs must be
according to section 6.1.1. The minimum concrete strength in the joint (element/joint
concrete) is C25/30 (cylinder strength 25 MPa, cube strength 30 MPa).
