I have a torsional question for those who are using the new ACI 318-08 version.
It states (R.10.3.3) that to use 'moment redistribution', the beam must be designed for a Minimum Net Tensile Strain of 0.0075. Does this mean if we want to use compatibility torsion, our edge beam must meet this...
Sorry to revisit an old topic, but i really need clarification on a fine point with regards to torsion in concrete edge beams.
The real essence of the problem is this:
1. Can we just neglect the torsion by pinning in our model (therefore zero torsion from model, so zero torsion entry in our...
