The W44x408 wide flange beam is a structural steel section referenced in the AISC 360-16 Specification for Structural Steel Buildings. This section is commonly used in high-rise construction, bridges, and industrial frameworks where large spans and heavy loads are required. The beam provides excellent strength-to-weight efficiency with a wide flange profile, making it ideal for structural applications. Below is a detailed table summarizing the main dimensions, weight, and sectional properties for quick reference. Engineers, architects, and designers can rely on this data when performing structural analysis, fabrication, or design optimization of steel structures.
