2. The deck stiffened panel shown in figure is subjected to a uniform longitudinal compressive
stress of 180 N/mm2 . For the transverse beam, the attached plating is assumed to be 90 %
effective. Assume all edges are simply supported. What are the buckling limit states to take into
consideration?. Which represent the critical failure mode?
(Yield stress = 235 N/mm2 and E = 2.06 x 105 N/mm2 )
