An error is introduced by the conventional approach of applying beam theory in the presence of interiorly applied loads. This error arises from neglecting the influence of the precise distribution of surface tractions and body forces on the warping displacements. This paper intends to show that beam theory is capable of accounting for this influence on warping and accomplishes this by the variational asymptotic method. Correlations between elasticity solutions and beam solutions provide not only validations of beam solutions, but also illustrate the resulting errors from the conventional approach. Correlations are provided here for an isotropic parallelepiped undergoing pure extensional deformations and for an isotropic elliptic cylinder undergoing pure torsional deformations.
