The distance a bridge extends between two supports
The pawn's vertical distance from the edges of the board.
The horizontal distance center to center of the runway rails.
The horizontal distance between abutments. For minor arch calculations the clear span of the opening is used. For a major parabolic arch the span is the distance between the ends of the arch axis at the skewback.
the distance between two supports as in a bridge or the time between two points in time; to bridge a gap The span of the arch was wide enough to accommodate a four-lane highway. The bridge was designed to span the river at its narrowest point. spanning (v)
The length from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger when the hand is stretched out (about 9 inches or 22.8 cm.).
The horizontal space between two supports of a structure. Also refers to the structure itself. May be used as a noun or a verb. The clear span is the space between the inside surfaces of piers or other vertical supports. The effective span is the distance between the centers of two supports.
