Use A992 steel, select a W-shape for the upper girder that spans left to right and picks up the loading from the three floor beams. Assume the beam is simply supported. The maximum permissible live load deflection is L/360. The service dead loads consist of a 5-inch thick reinforced concrete floor slab (normal weight concrete), a partition load of 25 psf, and 20 psf to account for suspended ceiling and mechanical equipment.
