With regard to the shear design of RCC beams, which of the following statements is/are TRUE?

Excessive shear reinforcement can lead to compression failure in concrete
Beams without shear reinforcement, even if adequately designed for flexure, can have brittle failure
The main (longitudinal) reinforcement plays no role in the shear resistance of beam
As per IS456:2000, the nominal shear stress in the beams of varying depth depends on both the design shear force as well as the design bending moment
