December 13, 2020 - Trish Kane has brought a video about covered bridge engineer and designer Theodore Burr to our attention. The video, entitled Theodore Burr, was produced by PBS member station WSKG in Binghamton, New York.
This short video is full of information on Burr and his truss. The Burr truss has been widely used in covered bridge construction since its introduction.
Trish Kane is the Collections Curator at the Theodore Burr Covered Bridge Resource Center in Oxford, New York.
Enjoy the video and the history.
Our thanks to Trish Kane for bringing this to our attention in The Covered Bridge Experience Facebook group. - Ed.
