For all practical purposes, the span of a beam bridge should not be more than 250 feet.
Please see the related link.
the longest span of a truss bridge is 2.1 miles long
to hold more weight and to span more distance
The exact year the truss bridge was invented is not known. Early forms of truss bridges were seen as earl as 1820 and iron truss bridges did not appear until 1850.
Yes they are
A truss bridges are designed using materials that are connected in a manner to be stressed under tension and/or compression. I truss system can be designed to be as long as necessary. Columns are also used in truss desins to reduce deflections.

The Warren truss is commonly regarded as one of the strongest types of truss bridges due to its efficient use of materials and load distribution. Its geometric design helps evenly distribute forces throughout the structure, making it a popular choice for long-span bridges.
As far as i can tell there are 27 different types of truss bridges (i.e. Brown truss, Bowstring truss, Kingpost truss, Long truss, and Pratt truss). Hope this helps :D
truss bridges are one of the most spaceships in the undergrounds flying
three different truss bridges in connecticut
well now a days truss bridges are not in use oftenly cause they need great maintenance works truss bridge only gives advantage to short span way it cannot be use in a big way
The geometric shape used in truss bridges is the triangle.
No. A truss bridge is composed of trusses
A truss is a diagonal brace which provides structural support for a bridge span by extending between a vertical member and the bridge span.
The exact year the truss bridge was invented is not known. Early forms of truss bridges were seen as earl as 1820 and iron truss bridges did not appear until 1850.
The strengths of Truss bridges are that Truss bridges can support and resist lateral loads. Another is that unlike the Arch and Beam bridges, the Truss bridge prevents twisting and swaying during earthquakes and high winds. Truss bridges also resist the forces of compression and tension.
