If you have moment hinge it is a moment failure. If you have shear hinge it is shear failure.
I think the beam is considered as "pure concrete", if you have a moment hinge. Anyway, what I mentioned above is the manner in which I checked the shear. Other solutions are also possible.
I believe you need to locate shear hinges at both ends for beams and probably at mid span and both ends for columns.
