try this website it might help - http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/beams-support-forces-d_1311.html first off the calculations are based on beam size (example w14x26 [14=14" x26=lbs. ) which is around 5 3/16" wide x 13 7/8" high the flange thickness is around 3/8" thick and the web would be 1/4" wide you also must check the span and application (concrete Pier's, or schedule 40 columns (1/4" thick steel column) there are other factors which are involved in other words consult your engineer

How do you calculate steel quantity in RCC 100 cft?
Steel Cannot be calculated based on cft. Load bearing capacity is required to calculate steel.
How do you calculate load capacity on 1 inch steel plate floor?
with your face
WHAT IS V1027M?
Steel I beams
How do beam bridges support weight or load on them?
Beam bridges support weight or load on them by compressing to the area of the load pushing on the beams and the beams creating a reaction force that pushes back up on the load.
What if the Roof is steel deck on steel beams-what construction is this?
composite deck
How do you calculate reactions for a simply supported beam subjected to point load?
simply supported beams as we all know contain 2 supports at its ends, to support the beam.simply supported beams can be seen in several structure arounds us .the main thing to learn about simply supported beams is that the support reaction will be always equal to the point load concentrated on the beams.you can easily calc the rxn of the beams by applying the equilibrium condition into it
What is the analogy for steel beams are to crane as person is to?
Elevator!
Different sections of beam?
Among our handy steel beam tables you can find standard beams' dimensions and beams' weights, steel hollow sections tables and other steel profiles data.
How timber columns and beams react under load?
flexible
Why are beams shaped like an 'I'?
Makes the load go down.
How concrete slab distribute the load to the beams?
Just like your tummy slab tranfers your weight to your leg beams
Are w shape steel beams doubly symmetric or singly symmetric?
The "W" in steel I-beam designations refers to wide-flanged beams. Most wide-flanged beams are symmetric about both the vertical and horizontal axes.
