A comprehensive field test was conducted on a highway truss bridge in Allegheny County, Virginia, in July 1974. All typical truss members as well as structural members of the bridge floor system were instrumented and unit strains measured when the structure was loaded with a 3-axle tractor trailer weighting 78,000 lb. placed in incremental position
