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).

Yes, right @Pankaj.

A is the correct answer.

Correct @Satyamev.

Absolutely right, Thanks @Satyamev.

Minimum D/200 max is D/85.

If the thickness exceeds d/85 then no stiffener required because. There is enough strength to carry the load as the thickness is more.

So, the minimum d/200.

Option B is the right answer.

According to me, A is correct.

The correct answer is option B.

A is correct.

No stiffeners are provided if web is less than d/85.

Vertical stiffeners are provided if web is more than d/85 but less than d/200.

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

Vertical +2 horizontal stiffeners are provided if web is more than d/250 (in this case this 2nd horizontal stiffener is usuall place at neutral axis).
