Beam Design $4/4$: Picking a Beam Size

A wood floor beam has a uniformly distributed dead load of $80$ pounds per foot and a live load of less than $7$ days' duration of $80$ pounds per foot on a span of $22$ feet.

For the beam that you selected, how much is the calculated deflection. Hint: Only one beam fits the requirement and you would have selected it in Beam Design $2/4.$
