INTRODUCTION
Today with the smaller members selected using the
strength design procedure, therefore torsion needs
to be considered much more frequently.
Equilibrium
torsion.
Torsional Moments that Have to Be Considered in Design
2. Compatibility torsion—The torsional moment in a
particular part of a statically indeterminate
structure may be substantially reduced if that part of the
structure cracks under the torsion and “gives,” or rotates.
The result will be a redistribution of forces in the
structure.
Compatibility
torsion.
Torsional Stresses
the torsional stresses add to the shear stresses on
one side of a member and subtract from them on
the other.
Torsional Stresses
In solid sections, the shear stresses due to the torsion, Tu , are
concentrated in an outside “tube” of the member, while the shear
stresses resulting from Vu are spread across the width of the solid
section,

for torsion calculations.
For statically indeterminate structures where
reductions in torsional moments can occur
because of redistribution of internal forces
Section 11.6.2.2 of the ACI Code permits the
maximum factored torsional moment to be
reduced to the following value:
= λ
• Acp equals the area of the entire cross
sections (including the area of any voids in hollow
members), and
• pcp represents the perimeters of the entire cross
sections.
• For a hollow section, Ag shall be used in place of Acp
in 11.5.1, and the outer boundaries of the section shall
conform to 13.2.4.
Portions of monolithic T beam that may be used for Acp and Pcp calculations.

ACI Section 11.5.4.4 for hollow sections the
distance from the centerline of the transverse
torsion reinforcing to the inside face of the wall
must not be less than 0.5Aoh/ph
• Acp is the Area enclosed within by out side
perimeter of section
• Aoh is the Area of the member that is enclosed
within this centerline. The letters oh stand for
outside hoop
• Ao is the Area enclosed by shear flow path
• pcp is the perimeter of the concrete section
• ph is the perimeter of the centerline of the
outermost closed Stirrup.
Torsional Moment Strength
Torsional Reinforcing
confinement is available at
right hand side –thus 90 hook

confinement is available at
both side –thus 90 hook are
permissible at both side
