This document provides an outline for a study on the structural analysis of plate girders. Chapter 1 introduces plate girders and their key elements. It also defines important terms and discusses structural modeling and analysis approaches. Chapter 2 reviews relevant literature on plate girder analysis. Chapter 3 discusses using ABAQUS software for pre-processing, modeling, analysis, and post-processing of plate girder models. Chapter 4 covers structural analysis methods, finite element analysis, and stresses in flexural members. Chapter 5 defines 8 plate girder models that will be analyzed. Chapter 6 will present and discuss the results of analyzing the models, including stresses, displacements, and buckling behavior.
