Is that worked out using the same "max bending moment times 1/2 of depth of beam over 2nd moment of area" As you would with the universal beam?

Sorry The table comes from a British standards book. showing universal, structural tees and gantry girders. There is no cross section stated in the question(i think this is where I'm getting stuck as i have examples using the cross section). Here is that table as well as my working of the...

Homework Statement In cross-section, the beam you are working on is a gantry girder.The maximum bending stress in the girder must not exceed 25MN/m2 and the modulus of elasticity can be assumed to be 210GN/m2. Determine a suitable size for the beam, selected from the standard sections tables...
