Presentation- Hypothesis

From my research in the way that bridges work through compression and tension I predict the Truss bridges will be the most weight bearing for two reasons.
More compression and tension members than any other bridge will give it the advantage at maintaining a even distribution in load/weight.
Another reason for the hypothesis is because Truss bridges have the power to direct load/weight in many directions until it has distributed into the earth on which it was built.
