Shear intensity is the shear stress over the cross-section.

Shear Stress (τ) = (3/2) * (V/A) * (1-(y/c)^2).

c is half the beam's thickness.
V is the shear force on the cross-section,
A is the area of cross-section.
y is the distance from the neutral axis.

In the case of a rectangular beam, the distribution of shear stress varies with change in y as a parabolic function.

It may be noted that the shear stress is distributed parabolically over a rectangular cross-section.

It is maximum at y = 0 and is zero at the extreme ends.

Yes, it is parabolic.
