    This document provides a proposal for a project to design a Warren truss bridge. It includes the course and project details, names of the students, and a brief introduction to truss bridges that describes how they are constructed and analyzed. It then presents the proposed design of the Warren truss bridge, which is determined to be statically determinate. Finally, it justifies the selection of the Warren truss design for the project based on its suitability for the intended use by villagers to cross a river, with considerations for lightweight construction and low cost.

    HISTORY OF BRIDGE

    Early truss bridges would typically use carefully fitted timbers for members taking
    compression and iron rods for tension members, usually constructed as a covered bridge to
    protect the structure. In 1820 a simple form of truss, Town's lattice truss, was patented, and
    had the advantage of requiring neither high labor skills nor much metal. Few iron truss
    bridges were built in the United States before 1850.

    INTRODUCTION

    A truss bridge is a bridge whose load-bearing superstructure is composed of a truss, a


    structure of connected elements, usually forming triangular units. The connected elements
    (typically straight) may be stressed from tension, compression, or sometimes both in response
    to dynamic loads. The basic types of truss bridges shown in this article have simple designs
    which could be easily analyzed by 19th and early 20th-century engineers. A truss bridge is
    economical to construct because it uses materials efficiently.
    The nature of a truss allows the analysis of its structure using a few assumptions and
    the application of Newton's laws of motion according to the branch of physics known as
    statics. For purposes of analysis, trusses are assumed to be pin jointed where the straight
    components meet, meaning that taken alone, every joint on the structure is functionally
    considered to be a flexible joint as opposed to a rigid joint with strength to maintain its own
    shape, and the resulting shape and strength of the structure is only maintained by the
    interlocking of the components. This assumption means that members of the truss (chords,
    verticals and diagonals) will act only in tension or compression. A more complex analysis is
    required where rigid joints impose significant bending loads upon the elements, as in a
    Vierendeel truss.
    PROPOSED TRUSS BRIDGE

    STATICALLY DETERMINATE CHECK


    m + r = 21 + 3 = 24
    2j = 2 (12) = 24 , m+r=2j=24
    : statically determinate truss
    JUSTIFY OF PROPOSED BRIDGE TRUSS
    Our team choose this kind of bridge truss because we target to build only for villagers
    to move from one place to another place to cross a river. Therefore the structure proposed are
    limited to lorry(1ton) and car. Then,the lightweight structure,we do not take into account in
    term of aesthetic. This truss bridge is easy to install, durable, low cost in term of installation
    and also maintenance. We believe this proposed truss bridge is the best truss bride due to the
    reason that we have stated before.
