Corrected for Skew:
mgr = rskew x mg
where,
rskew = Correction Factor for Skew
mg = Uncorrected Distribution
Factor neglecting skew Uncorrected Distribution Factor = mgVMI 0.826
For Shear, Interior Beams
Uncorrected Distribution Factor = mgVSE 0.762
For Shear, Exterior Beams
Uncorrected Distribution Factor = mgMMI 0.746
For Moment, Interior Beams
Uncorrected Distribution Factor = mgMSE 0.762
For Moment, Exterior Beams

Correction Factor for Moment:
For skewed bridges the Distribution Factor for Moment may be modified by
multiplying it with a Modification Factor given as: [A4.6.2.2.2 e]
