		A truss is a triangular system of timbers designed so that each member helps to support the others; together they support the weight of the structure over a span.
		One of the earliest bridge truss designs was the king post truss, formed by one vertical member (or post) in the center with two diagonals and a bottom chord (horizontal member).
		The next development was the queen post truss (or modified king post), in which the peak of the kingpost triangle was replaced by a horizontal crosspiece, or upper chord, allowing the truss to span a greater length.
