Question:

During construction of a highway bridge, the main girders are cantilevered outward from one pier toward the next (see figure). Each girder has a cantilever length of 48 m and an I-shaped cross section with dimensions shown in the figure. The load on each girder (during construction) is assumed to be 9.5 kN / m, which includes the weight of the girder. Determine the maximum bending stress in a girder due to this load.
