The deck of a bridge consists of ribbed metal deck with 100mm concrete slab on top. The deck is supported by wide flange steel beams strengthened by cover plates 16mmx250mm one at the top and one at the bottom. The beams are simply supported over a span of 25m and are spaced at 1.20m on centers. The beam loads are shown below. Unit weight of concrete is 23.50kN/m3. a.) Determine the maximum bending stress in the cover plated beam due to live load plus impact, MPa b.) Determine the average web shear stress in the beam due to live load plus impact, MPa.

Question
The deck of a bridge consists of ribbed metal deck with
100mm concrete slab on top. The deck is supported by wide flange steel
beams strengthened by cover plates 16mmx250mm one at the top and one
at the bottom. The beams are simply supported over a span of 25m and
are spaced at 1.20m on centers. The beam loads are shown below. Unit
weight of concrete is 23.50kN/m3.
a.) Determine the maximum bending stress in the cover plated beam due
to live load plus impact, MPa
b.) Determine the average web shear stress in the beam due to live
load plus impact, MPa.
