Does AISC 360 include any design recommendation or requirements for longitudinal stiffeners and longitudinally stiffened webs of plate girders?
Also, I can not find any requirement for shear lag effective width due to flexible shear stiffness of deck plates (stiffened by T beams or similar often used in stiffened deck construction), neither buckling effective width of stiffened deck plates (usually considered for thin deck plates to account for local buckling of the plate between stiffeners)
I'm aware of other codes of practices which include recommendation for all three mentioned above. My question is specific to AISC 360 and how it deals with these three cases.
