Hi,
I have a beam profile as shown in the attachment and I need to find the Warping Constant for the profile.

It is not possible to create this profile using the CAE (arbitrary profiling will not make three or more beams from one point), and when using the MESHED BEAM CROSS-SECTIONS it does not print out the Warping Constant.

How can I find the Warping Constant by using Abaqus?
