Thus, for greater strength and additional length, builders commonly utilized a combination arch and truss design, often called "camelback" or "hump" bridges due to the appearance of an arch (Ortega 1991:2-5). Both Palmer and Wernwag used as their main component an arch supplemented by a truss. In 1806 Burr introduced the first patented bridge system widely used in the United States, a truss supplemented by an arch (DeLony 1994:10). While Burr was the most famous of the three, Palmer also had a lasting and significant impact on wooden truss bridge design.

garbaty mostek
wychowywałem się niedalego takiego w Toruniu i zawsze miał taką nazwę (nie mostek garbaty, tylko garbaty mostek); być może to nazwa własna, ale google wskazuje, że garbate mostki są też w innych miejscach
HTH
hump bridge (wg googla) wskazuje, że nie jest to duza konstrukcja przez wielką rzekę, raczej przez weższe cieki, etc. stąd zdrobnienie "mostek" wydaj się na miejscu

dzięki; mam wrażenie, że coś takiego mimo wszystko w polskim brzmi dziwnie; jeśli tłumaczyć to chyba tylko w cudzysłowiu
