END PLATE
Grade of steel = 50

Design strength(Fy) = 275 N / mm^2

Edge distance from the bolt (e) = 24 mm

Moment in the plate (Mp) = ( 2 x T x e) = 336175.53 N-mm

width of plate (b) = 210 mm

thickness of plate (t) = 16 mm

Bending stress (Fb) = (Mp x 6)/(b x t x t)

= 37.52 N / mm^2 < Fb(allowable)= 0.75*Fy
= 206.25 N / mm^2
