My Bridge

For my bridge I have decided to either make a truss bridge or an arch bridge for my project already i have made a few bridge bases and have already built two bridges to test 
I have decided t use these truss bridge designs because some are fairly easy to make and all will supply a decent amount of support so i can achieve the goal. After researching discovered the bridges that were able to hold a significant amount of weight were truss bridges that had curves in them or arc bridges with triangles and truss bridges that had rigid squares and triangles that

The types of truss bridges I am testing are:

The Parker Truss



Pratt Truss






Brown Truss




I am thinking of also testing this type of bridge it is a mix of a truss and arc bridge.


Bowtring Truss (Arc)
