the longest span of a truss bridge is 2.1 miles long
to hold more weight and to span more distance
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.
distance b/w 2 supports is clear span. then c/c dis b/w 2 supports is eff 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!

the longest span of a truss bridge is 2.1 miles long
A truss is a diagonal brace which provides structural support for a bridge span by extending between a vertical member and the bridge span.
Double-Span Metal Pratt Truss Bridge was created in 1877.
what is the regularly span of a arch bridge
to hold more weight and to span more distance
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 span
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.
