We apply Dirac's Hamiltonian approach to study the canonical structure of the teleparallel form of general relativity without matter fields. It is shown, without any gauge fixing, that the Hamiltonian has the generalized Dirac-ADM form, and constraints satisfy all the consistency requirements. The set of constraints involves some extra first class constraints, which are used to find additional gauge symmetries and clarify the gauge structure of the theory.

This is consistent with the spin connection implementation in tegr where it represents dof associated with the Lorentz group and so cannot contribute to the number of dynamical equations for an arbitrary gravitational system [ref] .

In general, NGR admits a Hamiltonian formulation and can be decomposed into nine independent types according to the combination of primary constraints which are related to the $SO(3)$-irreducible representations of the canonical momenta [ref] [A rigid $SO(1,3)$-irreducible decomposition of the torsion tensor is presented in Ref. [ref] .].
