A new improved way for modeling steel composite straight bridges has been presented (Vayas, 2009; Vayas, 2010). The proposed model is based on the representation of steel I-girders through the use of equivalent trusses. The concrete slab is suitably represented by a set of bar elements. Diaphragms and stiffeners may also be taken into account. In contrast to the grillage model, which is usually used for the analysis of bridges, the recommended three dimensional model allows for a more reliable prediction of deformations and internal forces. This paper discusses the extension of the model to skewed composite bridges. The presence of skew makes the analysis complicated and for this reason the grillage analysis is not always recommended. Phenomena like differential deflections of the main girders during concreting and lateral displacements of the flanges can be adequately predicted using the proposed model. The new way for modeling composite bridges, using a spatial system of beam-like structural elements, can also be used for stability analysis of skewed bridges. Worked examples are provided to illustrate the set up procedure of the proposed modeling and to compare the different ways of analysis. © KSSC and Springer 2011. (EN)
