That depends on many other factors. What is the beam material? Is the load a point load concentrated in one spot, or is it uniform across the total span? Specing beams is something that should be left up to a qualified person.

To remove 8 feet of load bearing wall and replace with steel beam what size beam?
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.
What size you beam will used 60 feet span roof?
That is not a simple anwer. It depends on the roof design and how many, and where the load points are, and the material of the beam(wood, metal, composite). See a structural engineer.
What size I-beam is required for a basement beam that needs to span 25 feet and will support 2x10 floor joists spanning 12 feet?
These calculations are not difficult, but you must know the load (including the floor weight) that will be carried. And the deflections that the appropriate building regulations allow.
What size steel eye beam can safely span 14 feet with a point load of 4000 pounds in the middle?
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.
What is RCC beam size for the 16 feet span for the roof?
1'*1'
What size beam will span 18 feet?
That question cannot be answered without knowing the load on the beam.
What size steel I beam do I need to span 32 feet with a load of 2500LB at center?

What size laminated timber beam is needed for a 23 foot clear span under a 15 foot roof in between load bearing walls -?
38 feet longIt is not possible to give a definite answer without more detail. The construction and type of roof will determine the load (weight) bearing on the beam, and factors such as wind load and earthquake load, and the way the roof bears on the beam (truss/point load/distributed load) will all affect the sizing.

What size beam can safely span 43 feet with a load of 1200 pounds?
There are too many variables to consider for your application. You should consult a qualified engineer for this project.
What size eye beam can safely span 25 feet with a point load of 4000 lbs in the middle?
You will also need to include the acceptable amount of deflection in your question.

What is max height of post and beam construction?
The maximum height depends on many factors like the snow load, the wind load, the size of the building, etc. Typically residential post and beam frames can be three stories or more. Commercial frames can go 60 or 70 feet or higher.
What size of beam do you need to span 14 ft?
That really depends upon the load you need to carry and the material that the beam is made of.
