Determine the Von Mises stress and deflection of a pedestrian footbridge and assess whether it can safely support 50 persons each weighing 100 kg (total load = 49,050 N distributed uniformly across the walkway surface). Download a bridge CAD model from GrabCAD in .STEP or .IGES format. Apply a uniform distributed load, fix the support ends as pinned/roller supports, and run a static structural simulation using structural steel. Predict whether the bridge is safe, calculate the maximum deflection and compare against the allowable deflection limit (L/360), and present a brief design verdict.
