Description
Description

A pitched Warren truss is a type of truss that is used in bridges and other structures. It is characterized by its triangular shape, with the diagonal members sloping upwards towards the center of the structure. This design allows the truss to support more weight than a traditional Warren truss, and it also makes the structure more resistant to wind and other forces. Pitched Warren trusses are often used in bridges because they are able to span longer distances than other types of trusses.

The Pitched Warren Truss is configurable in a range of sizes with typical spans between 30’-60’ (9.1-18.3 m) and overall heights of 10’-40’ (3.05-12.2 m). The thickness of wood trusses is commonly 1.5”, 3”, or 4.5” (3.8, 7.6, 11.4 cm). Trusses have a pitch ratio typically between 1:1 to 1:6.
