a)
Midspan:

espan= 290.076 mm

***Check bottom compression

σbottom= 20.10 MPa < 40 OK

Supports:

esupport= 234.848 mm

***Check bottom compression

σbottom= 17.67 MPa < 40 OK

e= 234 mm

b)
M l= 910 kN.m
w l= 50.55 kN/m

***Check top compression

σtop= 17.67 MPa < 40 OK

c)
wl/A= 168.51 kN/m3
wl/Fps= 0.023 m-1

*** Section B is more efficient than section A because of its bigger moment of inertia.
Although section A has a bigger area, section B can carry more superimposed load.
Therefore, I beams are more economical than rectangles.
