Truss bridges are recognizable because of their numerous‚ relatively small interconnected triangles. This framework of triangles is used for is strength to withstand tension and compression forces. They are considered a light-weight yet a very stiff form of construction. At first they were built of wood‚ then with the discovery of welding they began to build then using iron‚ then steel. Occasionally‚ a combination of the materials may be used. There are actually 30 different kinds of truss bridges
