Based　on　FEA　for　three　bridge　models　with　varying　skew　angles,　the　effect　of　skew　angle　on　the　design　moment　and　shear　of　skewed　bridge　structures　was　studied　and　also　compared　to　AASHTO　specifications.　The　results　show　that,　generally,　ASSHTO-LFD　covers　FEM　in　moment　distribution　factor,　but　a　little　less　in　shear　distribution　factor,　and　that,　however,　AASHTO-LRFD　reduces　moment　distribution　factor　below　AASHTO-LFD　and　near　to　FEM,　but　increases　shear　distribution　factor　a　lot　beyond　AASHTO-LFD　and　FEM.
