The paper describes the main features and advantages of European standard EN 1993-1-5 in the design of plated structures. Compared to other types of steel structures, plated structures are more prone to local buckling and therefore required design rules to cover such a phenomenon. The concept of the article focuses on The Reduced Stress Method. A steel box girder chooses for numerical example was fabricated of S235 steel, has 7 panels with transverse and longitudinal stiffeners and was tested in 1985 at the Testing Laboratory of the Research Institute for Transportation Engineering, in Bucharest.
