RCD 2 - Torsion

Torsion is discussed in the document. The threshold torsion is represented by the equation λ(Acp/Pcp)(√fcp), where λ is a modification factor depending on the concrete type, Acp is the area enclosed by the perimeter of the concrete cross section, Pcp is the outside perimeter of the concrete cross section, and fcp is the compressive stress in the concrete.
