Allowable Torsion Strees on Steel
Allowable Torsion Strees on Steel
(OP)
Any one know the allowable torsion on steel?
I have a plate that will be subject to a torsional moment of 17,123.92 in-lbs and it is 11" wide. I am trying to size the depth.
Any help on the process would be helpfull. I have never done torsion on steel before.

Depending on the geometry, you could get into stability problems above the basic shear stress calculation.

This is a complicated issue, and you should really find a good text on torsion design before you try and do anything.
