W8*15 size profile convert to mm
With a span of only 8" you can probably use a wood beam, but without a set of plans no one can accurately answer your question.
Use a steel beam.. That would be code.. steel w10x15 (50ksi) I beam.
There are a lot of considerations to be taken into account for sizing steel shapes, especially for a residential home. For instance, what are the load imposed upon the beam? How will the beam be supported? What environment will the beam sit in (i.e. high humidity, moisture, vibration)? A licensed professional engineer or architect in your state can better answer this question.

Steel is stronger than concrete. By adding some reinforcement in the compression zone of a beam, it's bending strength can be increased without increasing the size of the beam. The steel increases the compression strength, while the concrete prevents the slender steel bars from buckling.
