This Picture is a great explanation about all kinds of bridges, but it doesn't mention where to use those kinds of bridges.
Truss Bridge and Arch bridge always use as cross roads, because they are easy to build and it cannot allow long distance between two touches.
By using iron chain, Cantilever Bridge, Cable-Stayed Bridge and Suspension Bridge Can support long distance between the touches. They are always built on wide rivers or cross the channel. Although it looks like those three kind of bridges are better than those two, these three kinds cannot use as the bridges to cross the channel. That's means those three kinds have wide limit.
