Abstract: With social and economic  development, the demand and consumption of conventional construction materials such as steel and concrete are unprecedented worldwide. During the last decades,  crucial technological development in the wood and construction industry has increased the use of wood. The present invention relates the advanced bamboo composites  with the plurality of similarly constructed and interconnected bridge elements along with frame, railing and flooring elements to make a fast assembling/disassembling,  foldable, portable traveller's bridges for crossing the trenches, or water flowing streams without disturbing aqua life or contaminating water. The processes for  developing the bridges have strong interrelated sequential serial chain-wise steps for the accurate and appropriate fast assembling/disassembling of the foldable and the  portable traveller's bridge. The unique modular design makes variable span-length, small size and lightweight elements. Assembling a complete bridge takes  significantly less time and only one set of spanners without using electricity welding or other tools.
