yes they have truss for getting more strenth to the bridge........

What type of truss system does the Speers Railroad Bridge use?
It uses a K-truss style that is rarely used outside of the Great Plains.
What is the upper member of the truss system that acts as a common rafter?
The upper member of a truss system that acts as a common rafter is typically referred to as the "top chord." It is the horizontal or sloped structural element that supports the roof load and connects the apex of the truss to its endpoints. The top chord works in tension or compression, depending on the design and loading conditions, and contributes to the overall stability and strength of the truss structure.
How many kinds of bridge are there?
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

How many segments are on the truss of the International Space Station?
The truss of the International Space Station (ISS) consists of a total of 15 segments, known as truss segments or modules. These segments provide structural support for the station and house various solar arrays and radiators. The truss system is integral to the ISS's ability to maintain its position and facilitate operations in space.
What is the size of the truss bridge?
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.

What is the upper and bottom chords of a truss?
In a truss, the upper chord refers to the top horizontal members that bear compressive forces, while the bottom chord consists of the lower horizontal members that usually experience tensile forces. Together, they form the structural framework that distributes loads and provides stability to the truss. The design and arrangement of these chords are crucial for the overall strength and efficiency of the truss system.
