The beam often receives transverse loading on horizontal members because of the nature of the loading. The beam consequently experiences axial forces in addition to shear, bending, and torsion. A torque phenomenon happens when eccentric stress is applied to a beam beyond of the bending plane. Due to the inherent characteristics of the torsion moment, which produces a shear-flow stress system in a beam, torque is well resisted by closed loops of reinforcement. Therefore, strengthening in an approach that completely encloses the cross section will be more beneficial. Investigation of 18 rectangular beams composed of plain and RCC that were tested for torsion is part of the experimental work. The first six beams act as control beams and were absent from a welded wire mesh encasing. The remaining twelve beams were made of concrete with encased welded wire mesh wrapping. There are test specimens of continuous fully wrapped welded wire mesh as well as four sides wrapped strips of welded wire mesh included in. The behaviour of the tested beams were examined with proposed model based on the formulas available in the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
