Cantilever Truss Bridge
The Cantilever Truss Bridge balances the torque on one side of the center tower with the torque on the other side.
Use cord and Cross Tensioning Clips to cross brace the top section of the truss at the end of the bridge. Use Track
Clips to attach the Coaster Track to the #3 Beam cross members. On each “arm” of the bridge, use a Flat 3 X 4
Member to cross brace the first section and the fifth section (counting from the end toward the tower).

the bottom of the #6 Beams at
the center of the tower. Use two
Sliding Connectors and a #3
Beam as a cross member
between the #6 Beams at the
center of the tower.
