transverse [web] stiffeners/stiffeners


Explanation:
http://www.abpe.org.br/trabalhos2016/55.pdf

A AASTHO STANDART SPECIFICATIONS (2002) define as transversinas como sendo enrijecedores transversais posicionados entre longarinas, com a função de manter suas seções transversais planas. As transversinas podem ser introduzidas nos apoios, sendo chamadas de transversinas de apoio (TA), e ao longo do vão, sendo chamadas de transversinas intermediárias (TI).

1.
Stiffeners. Stiffeners are secondary plates or sections which are attached to beam webs or flanges to stiffen them against out of plane deformations. Almost all main bridge beams will have stiffeners. However, most will only have transverse web stiffeners, i.e. vertical stiffeners attached to the web.
