Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ridley-Ellis, D., Owen, J. S., & Davies, G. (2002, May). Theoretical and measured torsional behaviour of rectangular hollow sections. Presented at 12th Intl Offshore and Polar Engineering Conference (ISOPE), Kyushu, 2002

Theories for torsion of Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) are compared and thick wall theory is shown to be a better representation of behaviour. The results of torsion tests on hot-finished steel RHS are discussed and compared to the predictions of... Read More about Theoretical and measured torsional behaviour of rectangular hollow sections..
