A composite primary steel beam with a span of 8m supports a secondary beam at midspan, which applies an characteristic (unfactored) load of 239kN to the primary beam. What elastic modulus (in cm) does the beam require to be able to carry the load if the allowable stress due to the characteristic loads is 210N/mm2? It may be assumed that the elastic modulus required for the composite beam is 63% of that required for the equivalent non-composite beam.
