Explanation

In a ring beam loaded uniformly, the shear force at the mid-span is zero because the load is symmetrically distributed. Additionally, torsion at the mid-span is also zero due to the beam's closed circular geometry, which balances twisting moments. Therefore, statements (1) and (3) are correct.
