EQUILIBRIUM (PRIMARY) TORSION
‐ static equilibrium of a structure depends on the torsional resistance
‐ full torsional design shall be made
Canopy
COMPATIBILITY (SECONDARY) TORSION
‐ torsion arises from consideration of compatibility
‐ the structure is not dependent on the torsional resistance
‐ it will normally be unnecessary to consider torsion at the ultimate limit state
‐ a minimum reinforcement should be provided
COMPATIBILITY (SECONDARY) TORSION
Secondary beam
Torsional stiffness of the girder is very low compared with
the secondary beam Redistribution of stresses
Secondary beam:
‐ Torsional stiffness could be neglected
‐ Design in ULS is not necessary GIRDER
‐ Supplementary longitudinal reinforcement will be placed
in zone with negative moment

Experimental tests on RC elements were demonstrated that:
Differences in capacity for torsion of rectangular solid and tubular cross sections
are not important, thus the contribution of the core concrete could be neglected for
torsion calculations.

Experimental tests on RC elements were demonstrated that:
Crack pattern of a RC beam subjected to torsion is very similar with an element
subjected to shear

The torsional resistance of a section may be calculated on the basis of a thin‐walled
closed section.

Why equivalent thin‐walled
sections?
The greatest shear stresses are at
edge of the cross section

For complex shapes:
‐ may be divided into a series of sub‐sections
‐ every sub‐sections is modeled as an equivalent thin‐walled section
‐ for non‐solid sections the equivalent wall thickness should not exceed the actual wall
thickness
‐ each sub‐section may be designed separately
‐ the distribution of the acting torsional moment over the sub‐sections should be in
proportion to their uncracked torsional stiffnesses

1) The effects of torsion and shear may be superimposed, assuming the same value
for the strut inclination ; the same angle in every wall.
2) The distribution of stirrups is constant along the element.
3) Longitudinal bars are distributed around the section; for calculation reasons
longitudinal reinforcement is concentrated in the four corners.
4) TEd is replace by a flow of shear ttef
