Use A992 steel and select a W shape for the following beam: Simply supported with a 40-foot span, lateral support only at each end, service DL = 2k/ft, service LL is a 25-kips concentrated load at midspan. Don’t forget to check with self-weight. The live load deflection is limited to L/360. Please also check for bending capacity and shear capacity. You may use AISC Table 3-2 and/or Table 3-10 to get started for both, but you will notice that you will need to manually solve with AISC Eq.’s F2-3 and F2-4. Solve using LRFD only
