A 457 x191 x 8 2 U K B provides sufficient resistance to lateral torsional buckling for segment BC and, by inspection, also segments A B and CD. The beam is therefore satisfactory in bending.
Shear resistance:

BS E N
1993-1-1 C 1 6.2.6

For a rolled I section, loaded parallel to the web, the shear area A, is given by:
A, = A - 2htt + (t,, + 2r)tt

(hut not less than qh,+t,,) U K N A to BS E N 1993-1-5

for all U K B From U K N A to B S E N 1993-1-5, q =1.0. With q =l.O, A, > qhlh,t, and UKC.

: . Shear resistance is O K
Dejections: Check deflection under unfactored variable loads. Assume for initial design that the point loads can be represented as a U D L and that the design loads can be factored down by 1.5 to estimate the serviceability loads. Assumed dejection limit is span/360 Assumed serviceability U D L w = Actual deflection.

: . OK

Beam is clearly satisfactory for dejection since these (approximate) calculations have used the full load and not just the imposed (variable) load.
