The Effect of Skewness on Live Load Reactions at Piers of Continuous Bridges
This paper presents a study on the effect of bridge skewness on live load reactions at piers of continuous skewed bridges. Finite element modeling and analysis are performed on selected steel I-beam bridges with varied skew angles. The bridges are analyzed for the live load reactions at piers and live load shears at beam end. A comparison study is performed for the difference between the distribution factors of reactions and shears. The comparison reveals that the distribution factor of reaction at support is higher than that of shear at beam end near the same support. The increase in reaction distribution factor is more significant, compared to shear, when skew angle is greater than 30°. It is recommended that more research be performed for the distribution factor of live load reaction to quantify the responses.
