Okay little one, have you ever seen a bridge or a big building with a lot of triangles in it? That's called a truss! A brown truss simply means that it has been colored brown, and there are many different designs and types of trusses.
Trusses are really strong because the triangles help distribute weight evenly across a structure. Imagine if you tried to build a tower out of just straight lines, it would probably fall over pretty easily. But if you add triangles to the tower, it becomes much stronger and can hold more weight without falling over.
So, a brown truss is just a really strong structure that has been colored brown!
