The tension flange of a cast iron girder is 240 mm wide and 40 mm thick. The compression flange is 120 mm wide and 20 mm thick and its web is 300 mm x 20 mm. Find the load per metre run which may be carried over a span of 4 m by a beam simply supported at its ends, if the maximum permissible stresses are 90 N/mm² in compression and 30 N/mm² in tension.
