The correct choice is (b) provide stiffeners which bear against flanges at load points

For explanation I would say: Web crippling can be prevented by spreading load over large portion of flange. The other remedy is provide stiffeners which bear against flanges at load points and are connected to web to transfer force to it gradually. The other remedy is to make the web thicker.
