Shield bonus and a disadvantaged resistance check

The obvious situation in which this occurs is trying to block an arrow.

Does the shield bonus get added before the DEX value is halved or after?

Noting that the resistance bonus for humans is added *after* the halving, so maybe shield is as well?

Thanks!

That's correct, the +20 for a shield is added after you half your DEX.
DEX/2 +20 for a shield +10 if your human
