Bailey truss bridge, also known as Bailey steel bridge, is a modular prefabricated truss steel bridge. It consists of standardized Bailey truss panels, transoms, deck plates and connecting components. All parts are pinned together for fast assembly without heavy lifting equipment. The bridge can be quickly erected, dismantled and reused. With high load capacity and wide adaptability, it is widely adopted for temporary site access, disaster rescue, emergency road repair, mining and water conservancy projects.
