Transcript THE BERLIN IRON BRIDGE COMPANY, BRIDGE AT SUFFIELD, CONN. 'TWERE WE have illustrated a deck bridge, consisting of one span of 130 feet, with a roadway 16 feet wide in the clear. This bridge r~£ was built by us for the town of Suffield, Hartford County, Conn., in 1888—the illustration being taken direct from a photograph. This illustration again shows the adaptability of the parabolic truss, the roadway being placed above the truss (forming a deck bridge), instead of below the truss (forming a through bridge), as is the usual case. It also shows the adaptability of the parabolic truss to a deck bridge on a grade. The truss remaining in a horizontal position, but the roadway taking any grade that is desired. This bridge also presents a very ornamental appearance, as can be readily seen from the illustration. EAST BERLIN, CONNECTICUT, U. S. A.
