Design the exterior girder of a one-lane deck-girder RC bridge using the following data:

Bridge Deck:
slab thickness = 175 mm
lane width (including sidewalk, shoulder, and parapet) = 5.4 m
bottom width of parapet = 0.6 m
Interior T-Beams
effective length = 12.5 m
depth = 875 mm
width of web = 350 mm
main reinforcement = 7 D32
distance between layers = 40 mm
shear reinforcement = 10 mm
concrete cover = 37.5 mm
resisting Moment = 1749.20 kN-m
Loads:
Dead Load:
Wearing surface = 0.80 kPa
Weight of parapet = 3.53 kN/m
Weight of railing = 0.25 kN/m
Live load:
MS 13.5
distance between mid-axle and rear axle = 5 m
The bridge is to be supported by 3 T-beams. Use
beams and slab.

f c' 27.6 MPa

and

f y 276 MPa

for all
