Introduction to Research and Truss Structures for Bridges
Objectives and aims (why are you doing this and what you want to achieve from this?)
• General background
• What are truss?
• Where are they found?
• Common features?
• Pros and Cons of using truss structures in bridges
• What are the common type of materials used to construct truss bridges?
• Pros and Cons of the materials (strength Construction techniques, cost etc?)
Truss Structures
in Bridges (1)
• Illustrate your research with images found
(include location of bridge if possible
• Information about the bridge (size, frame
etc)
• Annotate them with the types of truss
structures used in their build.
• What is the function of the bridge?
• Build?
• Pros and Cons of this type of structure
• Reference (where did you get your
information from)
Truss Structures
