S-Calc FEA providing incorrect Torsional and warping constant

Calvin MacAulay

Hi,

S-Calc 2022.2 is providing me with significantly different Torsion and Warping Constant values for sections when I run the Thinwalled/General FEA. 

See below example for a W250x131 selected from the database. I would expect the results to be much closer together. I have not changed any of the default settings. 

Please advise.
