Torsional Analysis of Structural Elements

The document contains technical information and calculations related to the shear forces, bending moments, torsional moments and support forces in various structural elements (e.g. beams) under different load cases. Tables of numbers show the forces and moments calculated at different points along the structural elements. Additional sections provide calculations and percentages related to Saint-Venant torsion, warping torsion, and membrane shear forces in nodes of the structure under a nonlinear derailment load case.
