The self-weight of plate girder = W/200. or W/400.

Can anyone state the source of the answer in IS code? I'm unable to find it. Thanks.

Self weight of girder = W/200 KN/M or WL/200 KN .
Where
W=total factored imposed load.
Now here in question W is superimposed load so when we multiply with 1.5 then 1.5WL/300=WL/200 KN.
Therefore, the given answer is correct.

The wt of bolted/riveted plate girder = w/300.
For welded plate girders = w/400.
For welded plate girders = w/400.

Yes, we can take WL/200.
