PBARL/PBEAML have a shear center. Calculate it.

The shear center should be relative to some easily calculated point (e.g., half the height for an I beam or the bottom of a C beam). This is ultimately to aide in the calculation of 3D beams, so only the more complicated ones need this calculation (e.g,, a T or L does not).
