Warren truss

A Warren truss is a structural framework composed of interconnected triangles formed by diagonal members, which alternate direction. This design efficiently distributes loads and minimizes material use by converting vertical and horizontal forces into diagonal tension and compression forces within the members. Its triangular pattern enhances stability and strength, making it ideal for bridges and roofs. The Warren truss's geometric arrangement allows for even load distribution, reducing stress concentrations, and providing a durable, lightweight structure capable of supporting substantial weight over spans.
