steel bridge
Iron alloy crossing
A steel bridge is a bridge whose primary structural elements are made of steel.
The term distinguishes such structures from those built of concrete, stone, or wood.
Steel bridges range from small pedestrian crossings to massive suspension spans: The old steel bridge rattled as trucks crossed it.
