6m Decking Bearers

Hello All

I'm planning a decking that will hopefully have 6m (6000mm) single span bearers. (I need to use the space underneath) I have the Allan Staines guide but the table only goes up to a span of 3000mm. Does anybody know the size of the bearers I'll need to use, the stress grade and load width?

Hope you can help?

For that span you'll need to use a steel beam to support the joists,
consult an engineer for the size.
