Abstract

The presence of skewness in a bridge makes the analysis and design of bridge decks complex one. The angle of
skew has a considerable effect on the behavior of the bridge. Therefore, there is a need for more research to study the effect
of skew angle on the performance of skew bridges.Several models have been made with varying skew angles and the effect of
skew angle is studied using CSI bridge software. This paper summarizes the result of series of loading applied on skew girder
bridges as per IRC 6:2000guidelines to access peculiar aspects in maximum torsional moment and maximum displacement.
For this study the skew angles have been varied from 0°to 50° at intervals of 10° and the result obtained are compared with
straight bridge model.
