Torsion Constant for Square Cross-section Formula

\( J \;=\;   2.25 \cdot a^4 \)     (Torsion Constant for Square Cross-section)

\( a \;=\;   \sqrt[4]{ \dfrac{ J }{ 2.25 }   }\)

Symbol English Metric
\( J \)  (Greek symbol alpha) = torsion constant \(in^4\) \(mm^4\)
\( a \) = half the edge length of a square \(in\) \(mm\)
