- A plate girder must be designed for the conditions shown in Figure P10.7-4. The given loads are factored, and the uniformly distributed load includes a conservative estimate of the girder weight. Lateral support is provided at the ands and at the load points. Use LRFD for that following: a. Select the, flange and web dimensions so that intermediate stiffeners will he required. Use Fy=50 ksi and a total depth of 50 inches. Bearing stiffeners will be used at the ends and at the load points, but do not proportion them. b. Determine the locations of the intermediate stiffeners, but do not proportion them.arrow_forwardNonearrow_forwardDetermine the maximum axial compressive service load that can be supported if the live load is twice as large as the dead load.

The beam supports a uniform service (unfactored) dead load consisting of its own weight plus 1.4 kips/ft and a uniform ser- vice (unfactored) live load of 1.5 kips/ft. The con- crete strength is 3500 psi, and the yicld strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. The concrete is normal-weight concrete. Use load and strength- reduction factors from ACI Code Sections 9.2 and 9.3.
