The torsional resistance of the beam-like tensegrity structure is an essential mechanical property, but there is currently no systematic approach to applying torque to the structure using external force. This article presents a novel torque application strategy to analyze beam-like tensegrity structures. First, the torque that needs to be applied and the initial self-stable configuration are given. Second, the number of iteration steps is set, and the torque is gradually increased by using an arithmetic sequence, and the torque of each step is evenly distributed to the nodes of the acting surface. Third, the current external forces can be calculated by the nodal coordinates and torque, and the stable configuration under the obtained external force will be found based on the form-finding method. This process will be cycled until the specified torque is achieved. Finally, the equilibrium configuration under the set torque will be obtained, and the deformation analysis of the configuration will be carried out to study its mechanical properties. The elastic potential energy errors of the three-bar tensegrity prism unit and the class 2 tensegrity tower are corrected by 2.8198% and 66.9135%, respectively. This method has been proven to improve calculation precision.
