Torsion

Since RCC sections are mostly non-circular, they undergo twisting and warping in the application of torque hence torsional formula is not applicable in this case. Hence, designing is done as per code.

IS456 suggest a simplified approach based on “Skew Bending Theory” to design the member subjected to torsion by converting torsion into equivalent shear and bending moment.

Case I) Mt < Mu

Me1 = Mu + Mt

Design by taking 220 KN-m

Case I) Mt > Mu

Me1 = Mu + Mt

Me2 = Mt – Mu

Design by taking both moment
