Each of the three rolled-steel beams shown (numbered 1, 2, and 3) is to carry a 64-kip load uniformly distributed over the beam. Each of these beams has a 12-ft span and is to be supported by the two 24-ft rolled-steel girders AC and BD. The allowable normal stress for the steel used is 22.5 ksi. Determine the section modulus for each girder and select the most economical W shape for the two girders using the table given below. (Round the final answer to one decimal place.)
