ncerned,then in building structures it is a general practice to use a negligible

beam's torsional stiffness.In this way, the torsional stresses (if arising due to
mation i.e compatibility torsion ) are transferred via alternate load path (i.e
al moments occurred), considering that beam is unable to provide torsional

on of this approach is concerned then it is allowed by building
codes as,

mentioned, it is a general practice to nullify torsional constant of

ures and it is not required to use any iterative process to derive
ach beam section that is indeed not practical as there will be
ousands of beam span in large structures.
