Plain, Intermediate Stiffeners

See comments under Stiffeners in General

Plain stiffeners that are installed in the wrong location should be left as is. An exception to this is if a stiffener is installed on the outside of a fascia girder. The owner may want it removed for aesthetic reasons. If an improperly located stiffener causes the spacing between stiffeners to exceed a specified maximum, an extra one can be added to reduce the spacing to less than the maximum.
