Whether a truss bridge is better than a cantilever bridge depends on specific project needs and site conditions. Truss bridges generally offer greater load distribution and can span longer distances with less material, making them efficient for heavy loads. However, cantilever bridges are often advantageous in areas where construction is challenging, as they require less support during assembly. Ultimately, the choice between the two depends on factors such as load requirements, environmental conditions, and budget constraints.
