In most steel-framed structures, beams are subject only to bending and not to torsion. In buildings, beams are usually hot rolled I or H sections, proportioned for optimum bending performance about their major axis.

Plate Theory and Beam Theory. Plate theory is an approximate theory; assumptions are made and the general three dimensional equations of elasticity are reduced. It is very like the beam theory (see Book. 1 although if the in-plane loads are compressive and sufficiently large, they can buckle (see §6.7) I, §7.4) – only with an extra dimension.
Structural engineers occasionally need to determine the section properties of steel shapes not found in the current edition of the Handbook of Steel Construction (CISC 2000). The following pages provide the formulas for calculating the torsional section properties of structural steel shapes.
The outer rounding radius ro and the inner rounding radius r i are nominal values to be used in calculations and they are specified in the design standards EN 10210-2 §A.3 for hot finished structural hollow sections and EN 10219-2 §B.3 for cold formed structural hollow sections.
torsion situation and apply a simple and fairly accurate solution to achieve the design. Rolled steel members under uniform and nonuniform torsion have been studied analytically and experimentally by many investigators. For various loading and boundary conditions, solutions to differential equations have been
- Table 3-50 on page 16.1-145 shows KL/r vs. φcFcr for steels with Fy = 50 ksi. In order to simplify calculations, the AISC specification includes more Tables. - Table 4 on page 16.1-147 shows λc vs. φcFcr/Fy for all steels with any Fy. - You can calculate λc for the column, the read the value of φcFcr/Fy
