Can you give us some idea of the size of bridge you're referring to? Firstly, how long is it? If it's a suspension bridge do you include all the shore anchorages in the weight? What is it made from - stone, brick, steel, wood, for example? Is the whole of the bridge made from the same thing? What sort of load is it meant to carry?
The Rewa Bridge is much longer then the Melrose bridge.
The Beam bridge costs less. And much, much smaller. The Beam bridge costs less. And much, much smaller.
the i-35W bridge collapsed because there was to much structural stress on the bridge at the time, when the bridge collapsed it was rush hour time so there was to much weight on the bridge. ^^^NO! the bridge collapsed because the design was flawed. the gusset plate that failed was too thin for the loading. this was the engineers error, hence the lawsuit.
it cost lots and lots of money Eitaibashi Bridge was built in 1698. There are not likely to be any records of its cost. The bridge was replace in 1924-1926. That bridge is called Eitai-bashi or Eitai Bridge.

Wait a minute please, I gonna calculate it for you. Hmmmm, bridge, per square foot, how much does it weigh....hmmmmm... Foot2...hmmmmm Sorry, my brain fuse has blown out...
Try your local weigh bridge.
It can hold upto 60tons, depending on the quality of the product and type of steel weigh bridge you've picked.
Everything else being equal, a shorter bridge is stronger: it will weigh less, and therefore will not have to support so much of its own weight.
It depends on the scale of the model
