James Warren

 
Wikipedia: James Warren (engineer)

James Warren was a British engineer who, in 1848 (along with Willoughby Monzoni), patented the Warren-style truss bridge and girder design. This bridge design is mainly constructed by equilateral triangles which can carry both tension and compression. The first suspension bridge to use a Warren Truss was the Manhattan Bridge in New York City.
