6. Significance of Torsion Interaction of Shear-Torsion results in early cover spalling of non-circular/rectangular cross-sections due to circulatory shear stresses. Treatment of torsion is based on thin-tube theory. What are the effects of warping on the flexural and shear capacity of columns? What is the impact of Shear-Torsion on plastic hinges? What are the effects on the curvature ductility and location of the plastic hinge?
