Two wheels, placed at a distance of $$2.5$$ $$m$$ apart, with a load of $$200\,\,kN$$ on each of them are moving on a simply supported girder ($${\rm I}$$-section) of span $$6.0$$ $$m.$$ The top and bottom flanges of the $${\rm I}$$-section are of $$200 \times 20\,\,mm$$ and the size of web plate is $$800 \times 6\,\,mm$$. If the allowable and average stresses are $$110\,MPa,$$ $$165$$ $$MPa$$ and $$100$$ $$MPa$$ respectively, check the adequacy of the section against bending and shear stress (self-weight of the girder, may be neglected)

A steel beam supporting loads from the floors slab as well as from wall is termed as

The problem of lateral buckling can arise only in those steel beams which have

Two steel plates each of width $$150$$ $$mm$$ and thickness $$10$$ $$mm$$ are connected with three $$20$$ $$mm$$ diameter rivets is placed in zig-zag pattern. The pitch of the rivet is $$75$$ $$mm$$ and gauge is $$60$$ $$mm.$$ If the allowable tensile stress is $$150$$ $$MPa,$$ the maximum tensile force that the joint can withstand is
