I don't want any supports in the middle so I need to somehow span the 20' gap.
Please let us know about delivery and installation costs and overall satisfaction with the results. I am considering them for a future project.
OK, just jumped on line and checked out Menards weekly flyer. They have a nominal 12" deep I-section beam that's rated for a 20 foot span at 16 inch centers for $1.29/linear foot. Quick calc says your ceiling/floor framing will cost $350 to $400. With a steel beam and conventional timbers, you will need to get a pretty good deal on the I-beam to come in lower and it will be a lot more work to construct.
