SKEW

 

Purpose:  Used to determine the lane fraction in LRFD Line Girder Projects.  (See SKEW-1 for Girder System Projects.)

 

-->    Given in line girder input

 

SKEW is a list of framing angles (degrees) used to determine the adjustment for shear in the obtuse corner of a bridge (see Table 4.6.2.2.3c-1) and for moment reduction (see Table 4.6.2.2.2e-1).  Measured counterclockwise from the axis of the girder.  Default is 90 degrees.  (See BNGSKEW for bearing line angle)
