Question

A plate girder is composed of the following elements:
Web plate: 900 mm depth × 10 mm thickness
(i)
Two angles : ISA 200 mmx100 mm×12.0 mm @ 27.2 kg/m, in each flange
(üi)
Two flange plates : 500 mm x 16 mm in each flange.
(üi)
The girder is simply supported over an effective span of 12 m. The diameter of rivets used
for connecting flange angles to the web and flange plates to flange angles is 20 mm.
Determine the safe uniformly distributed load which the girder can carry, inclusive of its own
weight. Assume that the compression flange is not restrained against lateral bending, but the ends
are restrained against torsion. Take fy = 250 N/mm.
