Abstract
In a recent work we derived the kinematic Hamiltonian and primary constraints of the new general relativity class of teleparallel gravity theories and showed that these theories can be grouped in 9 classes, based on the presence or absence of primary constraints in their Hamiltonian. Here we demonstrate an alternative approach towards this result, by using differential forms instead of tensor components throughout the calculation. We prove that also this alternative derivation yields the same results and show how they are related to each other.
