MRTHETA

 

Purpose:  Used to specify theta for moment reduction due to skew.

 

-->    Given in LRFD line girder input

 

A list of values in degrees, one for each reaction on girder.  Default is 0 degrees. Used to apply moment reduction in determining lane fractions. Always given as a positive angle, regardless of which way it is measured from the perpendicular to the girder cross section.
