nsferred to the upper panel points,the chord stresses and diagonal web stresses will not be changed. The stresses in the verticalswill, however, each be reduced by the amount of the load transferred. In practice all the dotted diagonals are put in for the sake of rigidity and betterconnections.… … Fig. 87. Fig. 88. Example i. Highway bridge as shown in Fig. 87; class C, roadway 14 ft. wide; /= 105 ft.; « = 7;^ = 15 ft. Find all the stresses. Fig. 88 shows the usual form for through or pony Pratt trusses. The through or deckPratt truss is the standard form of truss for both highway and…
