Why work the load out to one-tenth of a gram?

That looks like a normal loading situation with standard masonry above and adequate wall either side so it's just a standard lintel for the wall type (single, double, cavity etc). 1200mm for the door and 2100mm for the windows.
But .... your drawing looks way out of proportion going by the sizes. Normally the tops of the windows align with the top of the door. If so, there is a problem with the bearings between the windows and doors and three lintels wont fit. If not and the windows are higher, you are OK.

Yes. You are right. Drawings out of proportion. Door to be aligned with windows.
I have an RSJ, 5.2M X 200mm X 130mm. Width of garage is 5.4M.
Wall is 9 inches, (2 leaf walls) stretcher bond. So, from your reply I am guessing I could use the RSJ in a single span.
