The cross-section of a simply supported plate girder is shown in figure. The loading on the girder is symmetrical. The bearing stiffeners at supports are the sole means of providing restraint against torsion. Design the bearing stiffeners at supports, with minimum moment of inertia about the center line of web plate only as the sole design criterion. The flat sections available are: $$250 \times 25,\,\,250 \times 32,\,\,\,200 \times 28$$ and $$200 \times 32\,\,mm.$$ Draw a sketch
