What is the main purpose of truss bridges?

What are 'deep stiffening trusses'?
A truss is a two dimensional structural lattice designed to provide a structural span. They use less material than a simple beam and are lighter. A horizontal truss consists of two horizontal members like beams, upper and lower, that define the depth of the truss, and internal members that form a lattice between these two beams. A stiffening truss is a truss designed to provide extra rigidity or stiffness. A deep truss has a large distance between the upper and lower members.
What is the difference between clear and effective span?
distance b/w 2 supports is clear span. then c/c dis b/w 2 supports is eff span
What is a clear span?
Clear span is the distance between bearing walls. If you have two walls that are a total of 20 feet apart out-to-out, and they are both made of 8" block, the clear span between the walls would be 18'-8". Hope this helps!

How long do truss bridges span?
For all practical purposes, the span of a beam bridge should not be more than 250 feet. Please see the related link.
