A thin-walled member having the cross-section shown in Figure 3(a) is subjected to a torque T. The member has a uniform wall thickness t. To strengthen the structure, a support is added as shown in Figure 3(b). Assuming 1= 20t, compare the maximum shear stress and twisting angle of these two members. The dimensions of the slot are neglected. 7 (a) (b) Figure 3
