Torsion in Beams
Introduction

• Reinforced Concrete Members are commonly subjected to bending moments, to transverse
shears associated with those bending moments, and, in the case of columns, to axial forces
E
often combined with bending and shear.
C
• In addition, torsional forces may act, tending to twist a member about its longitudinal axis,
which almost always act concurrent with bending moment and transverse shear, and
sometimes with axial force as well.
