I beam calculation

I need to assemble a lifting device,X shaped,each arm of the 'X' (one of four arms) 1 met long,or it's multiple.
A drum shaped load,1000 kgs or it's multiple is to be lifted vertically upwards along the central axis of the X using 4 slings suspended at the ends of the X.
The X frame itself,with the sling & load, is lifted using a normal hoist.
Which is the most cost effective I beam section I can use?
Gussetting is possible.
Any websites that can provide design info?
