Abstract
This study focuses on a skew slab bridge of 12m span and 7.5m carriage way. Finite element analysis results for skewed bridges with and without End beams (diaphragms) are found out for different skew angles. IRC class A loading and IRC 70R loading are applied to find the variation of maximum deflection, maximum longitudinal sagging bending moment and maximum torsional moment for different skew angles(350, 450, 550) are found out. It was found that with the introduction of diaphragm, the values for maximum deflection, maximum longitudinal sagging bending moment and maximum torsional moment were reduced. © Research India Publications.
