Introduction of Steel Truss Bridge
Here's a concise comparison of steel truss bridge types and their key differences:
Load Transfer:
Pratt/Howe: Ideal for concentrated loads (railway traffic)
Warren: Best for uniform loads (highway bridges)
K-Truss: Handles combined loads (heavy + dynamic)
Span Efficiency:
Short spans (<100m): Pratt/Howe
Medium spans (100-200m): Warren/Baltimore
Long spans (>200m): K-Truss/Parker
Construction Complexity:
Simple: Warren (fewer members)
Complex: K-Truss (many small elements)
Rapid: Bailey (modular assembly)
Aesthetics:
Industrial: Pratt/Warren
Architectural: Parker/Lenticular
Material Usage:
Most efficient: Warren (least steel)
Least efficient: Howe (more members)
Railway Crossing: Pratt/Baltimore (handles heavy point loads)
Highway Bridge: Warren (cost-effective for medium spans)
Emergency Use: Bailey (quick assembly)
Signature Design: Parker/Lenticular (visual impact)
Extreme Span: K-Truss (stability for >300m)
Warren trusses save ~15% steel vs. Pratt
K-Truss can reduce deflection by 20% vs. Warren
Bailey bridges assemble 3x faster than conventional trusses
