TRUSS BRIDGE
4
So there are so many types of bridges , but I have choosen K- Truss bridge. Truss bridge is a bridge with its load bearing structures composed of a series of wooden or metal triangles, known as a trusses. Given that triangel cannot be disorted by stress, truss gives a stable form capable of supportibg external loads over a large span. The k truss is a structural system commonly used in engineering projects like bridge structures. It’s characterized by a series of triangles that support the loads of a structure

This is my bridge called K-Truss bridge . So I came up with this design to make my bridge sustainable. At first the idea to make a bridge was clear, but there was no exact plan and exact i calculation of the sticks and design, there is a regular view of the bridge, but I took it and turned it over after experimenting, watched a lot of videos about bridges and their types and which one is durable and strong, this type of bridge is called k truss it serves more for both trains and cars. The shape and design are not super complex, my bridge is simpler and may seem fragile but it turns out I was wrong.

BRICK

Clay bricks are one of the oldest and most common building materials, traditionally made from clay, water, and sometimes other natural additives. Manufacturing Process: Extraction: Clay is usually mined from the earth. Preparation: The clay is then processed and shaped into bricks. This can involve molding the clay into the desired brick shape. Drying: The formed bricks are dried to remove excess moisture. Firing: The dried bricks are fired in a kiln at high temperatures, typically between 1,000 and 2,000 degrees Celsius.
Stretcher Bond: This is the simplest and most commonly used bond. It consists of bricks laid with their stretchers (the longer faces) in a horizontal line. It is often used for single-thickness walls or for the facing of thicker walls. Header bond :In this bond, bricks are laid with their headers (the shorter faces) in a horizontal line. It is typically used in thicker walls or in conjunction with other bonds to create a decorative pattern. English Bond: This bond alternates courses of stretchers and headers. A typical course starts with a header, followed by stretchers, and so on. English bond provides good strength and is aesthetically pleasing. It is commonly used in load-bearing walls. Stack Bond: In this bond, all bricks are laid as stretchers in a continuous, vertical line. It’s a simple bond often used for its modern and clean look. However, it is not as structurally sound as some other bonds and may not be suitable for load-bearing

Steel
Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, where the carbon content is typically between 0.2% and 2.1% by weight. In addition to iron and carbon, steel may also contain small amounts of other elements, such as manganese, silicon, sulfur, and phosphorus. The presence of these elements, along with the specific proportions of iron and carbon, gives steel its distinctive properties.

Steel
Steel joints refer to the connections or points where different steel members come together in a structure. The design and construction of steel joints are critical for the overall stability, strength, and integrity of a steel structure. Properly designed joints ensure that the individual steel members can work together efficiently to resist applied loads and provide a safe and durable structure.

Timber Timber is a versatile and widely used material in construction, woodworking, and various other applications. It is derived from the wood of trees and has been utilized by humans for various purposes for thousands of years. Timber continues to be a valuable material in various industries, and sustainable forestry practices are increasingly emphasized to ensure the long-term availability of this natural resource. Sustainable timber harvesting, responsible forestry management, and the use of engineered wood products contribute to environmen-

Timber Timber joints are connections between different pieces of wood that are designed to transfer loads and provide structural stability in timber constructions. The type of joint used depends on the specific requirements of the structure, the type of loads it will experience, and the desired aesthetic or functional qualities. The choice of timber joint depends on factors such as the structural requirements, aesthetic preferences, the type of timber being used, and the skills of the craftsmen or builders. Different joints offer varying levels of strength, flexibility, and ease of construction. 14
