Yes, right @Pankaj.

The answer is fine if you consider the following case as vertical stiffened web plate.

Here min web thickness is concerned so d/250 is the correct answer.

Vertical +1horizontal stiffeners are provided if the web is more than d/200 but less than d/250 (in this case this 1 horizontal stiffener is usual to place at 2/5th of the depth of neutral axis from the compression flange).

Option B is the right answer.

If the denominator factor is big, the thickness will be small. So if the denominator increases up to 200 thickness decreases to a minimum.

So, answer B. If vertically stiffened assumed. But I think it takes 250 because it hasn't differentiated between horizontal and vertical stiffener.

According to me , when the d/t is less than 85 then vertically stiffened are not provided but if the value is in between 85 -200 vertically stiffened are provided so the ans is A

D is the correct answer. Because. They asking only about vertical stiffner they didn't mention whether there is need of hzt stiffner or not.

So, We can take a minimum value.

D/t=250.
T= D * 0.004.

Both vertically and horizontally stiffeners are provided for greater than d/200.
