3.1 General
When torsional moments are not required for equilibrium, they can be neglected in ultimate limit state calculations. EC2 therefore deals only with equilibrium torsion. Some indications are given for left-hand torsion, but the developments concern circular torsion in particular.
3.2 Calculation procedure
Tests show that beams with a full cross-section behave like tubular beams; in other words, the central zone...
