 A skew bridge is one whose longitudinal axis
is not at right angle to the abutment.
 Bridges are important
structures built to span
without closing the way
underneath like water,
valley or road for
purpose of providing
passage over the
obstacle.
 Dead load
 Live load
 Impact load
 Wind load
 Buoyancy effect
 Seismic loads
Natural frequency
 Frequency of free vibration of a structural
system
 Depends on Mass & stiffness

 The term “resonance” occurs when dynamic

forces coincide with the natural frequencies
of the supporting structure.
 Tacoma Narrows Bridge (1940)
 Sindhu b.v Ashwin K.N,Dattatreya,S.V Dinesh
(international journal of research in engineering
and technology) concluded that ,The maximum
deflection for skewed deck slabs decreases with
the increase in skew angle.
 Anu sreebai S.K,Krishnachandran
V.N(international journal in applied science and
engineering technology) concluded that the
skew bridge with angle less than 15 degree can
be analysed as a conventional rectangular bridge
 Load carrying capacity of skew slab increases
as skew angle increases.
 Sajmi mamshad,Smitha K K( international
journal of latest trends in engineering and
technology), They studied the dynamic
response of concrete bridge and suspension
cable bridge and concluded that suspension
bridges produce higher than concrete girder
bridges and deformation is also higher for
suspension bridge
 Shobha herath,Vignaraj muthulingam
concluded that the results obtained from
SAP2000 are in good agreement with the
results obtained from field measurements.
 Considering all the conclusions we have
drawn our objectives.
 Ajay D.Shahu, S.V Joshi, P.D Pachpor
(International journal of current engineering
and scientific research).
 Torsional moment plays a major role for both
equivalent bending moment and equivalent
shear force observed during the analysis and
design for varying skew angle both for the
dead load and live load.
As the skew angle increases, torsion moment
increases
 Finding response of the bridge by varying
skew angles performing harmonic analyis
 Comparing the natural frequency in all the
cases.
 comparing deformation In all the cases.
