An 80-foot long plate girder (see below) is fabricated from a ½-inch x 78-inch web and two 3inch x 22-inch flanges. Continuous lateral support is provided. The steel is A992. The loading consists of a uniform service dead load of 1.0 kip/ft (including the self-weight), a uniform service live load of 2.0 kips/ft, and a concentrated service live load of 500 kips at midspan. Stiffeners are placed at each end and at 4 feet, 16 feet, and 28 feet from each end. Once stiffener is placed at midspan. Determine whether the flexural strength is adequate using LRFD.

help me i got trouble on this igive you upvote :))
A W36x210 can be used for Transfer Girder ‘A’ as shown in the elevation next page.Assume the LRFD loads on the ‘Transfer Girder’ are as follows:Pu= 200 kips from the column above. Assume also that the loads from self-weight of thewu = 2.0 kip/ft (girder self weight and beams framing into this transfer girder are equivalentto a uniformly distributed load). These loads are shown in the last figure.a) Check whether the W36x210 ‘Transfer Girder’ is adequate for bending and shear.Assume the unbraced length Lb =20 ft.b) Suppose that service loads, w and P, are both 50% dead load and 50% live load. Does theW36x210 satisfy a service live load deflection limit of L/480?
