Abstract- The development of De-Sauty’s bridge for capacitance measurement has been followed by various modifications and improvements in the original circuit. Lately Schering bridge and transformer ratio arm bridge have been used for measurement of capacitance in a circuit.Today there is instrumentation available that makes use of these bridges in real life such as that can measure the quality of electrical insulation at power frequency as well as in touch-sensitive sensors.

Basic Research 1. What is a truss and how are trusses used in bridge design? Include the importance of triangular shapes in truss design. A truss is a formation produced by triangular components. The triangular units forming the truss are slim and straight in form. The truss bridges consist of a grouping of triangles. Trusses are used in bridge design to form a series of strong supports using triangles‚ and have the forces of tension and compression acting on them. The importance of triangular

the project is to build a truss that would be able to take a specific amount of downward force remarkably with respect to the weight of the truss itself‚ i.e. to construct a truss that would hold a relatively high efficiency score. And construct the bridge in such a way to as to keep the deflection of the structure at minimal. Introduction First of all‚ what is a truss? In an engineering view‚ a truss is a structure that is made up of series of triangular unit made of straight members that are connected
