I am confused as to why the force for T1 in the attached problem is doubled.
T1 = 4000 in-lb
T1 = 4000 in-lb
Why Is the Force for T1 Doubled in the Torsional Deflection Problem?

SUMMARY
The force for T1 in the torsional deflection problem is established as 4000 in-lb. The 3-inch section of the beam is responsible for resisting both loads, while the 2-inch section only resists the outer load. This distinction in load distribution clarifies why the force for T1 appears to be doubled in the analysis of the problem.
