The document summarizes the design of a steel beam with a WT8x28.5 cross-section subjected to gravity loads. The beam has a 20 ft span and no cantilever. Design checks were performed for bending capacity, shear capacity, and deflection under dead and live loads based on AISC 360 specifications. All design checks were satisfactory, with the maximum calculated deflection of 0.51 inches under dead loads and 0.41 inches under live loads, both less than the deflection limit of 1 inch. Therefore, the beam design is adequate.
