To finalize the calculation of Part I of the Standardised Cross-section properties the Torsional constant It is calculated using the following simplified formula for a general solid Cross-section:
with
In normal cases this It value will be overwritten by the exact It calculation done in Part II. In case however the Part II calculation is not done the above calculation ensures there is at least an approximate value for It. This approach avoids numerical instabilities during the analysis.
