Abstract There has been no attempt made in this paper to compare the results contained herein to any results secured from previous experimental work. The equations presented are complete in themselves. Development of the equations for the abutments has been independent of the angle of skew. Therefore, they may be used with any solution or this type tor a slab of like material and same length knee, skewed at any angle. As a special case, a right rigid-frame bridge could also be analyzed by this method.
