Conclusion

The bridge is a structure or device that connects and passes packets between two network
segments that use the same communications protocol. A strong bridge was important to human
as a transport route. In this project, we are required to demonstrate a bridge layout which is to
determine internal forces that acted on the bridge and we also managed to determine the
deflection of the truss using LinPro software and alternative method. There are many types of the
bridges truss design that can be selectable and Pratt Truss Bridge type was been selected as our
design for this project. In this project, the knowledge about the bridge has been gain which is
how a bridge work and how bridge able to withstand when load applied on it.

Based on the stability and determinacy formula, we have found that our structure is in statically
indeterminate state. Force and load plays an important role in designing the bridge. The task
given has been completed which is with applied 10kg of load that acting on that bridge to
achieve the maximum shear and bending moment until the load collapse. When using LinPro
software, we can see that the bridge was deflected at where the load applied and we are able to
identify the tension and compression that work on the bridge. For manual calculation, we have
analysis and determined the internal forces that acting on the bridge and have make a comparison
of the result that we get between LinPro software and manual calculation.

As a conclusion, this project aim to develop the knowledge and also understanding of the bridge
structure by understanding the internal forces of the bridge. For our bridge, the truss have been
made up of more members to make it stable. Some precaution also should be taken throughout
this project. One of them is the design of the bridge must be correct according to the existing
design to make sure the bridge is stable and strong. Moreover, good cooperation and good team
work are also the key to success in this project.
