OR
Q.3 Design a welded plate girder for a simply supported bridge deck 20 m in span
subjected to a point load of 200 kN at distance 5 m from both ends in addition to
the imposed load of 20 kN/m and dead load excluding self weight is 20 kN/m.
Provide only end stiffeners and avoid the intermediate transverse stiffener. Use
simple post critical method.
