Sorry, the only book I used was an old EIT (Engineer In Training) exam study guide.
Here are pictures of the resulting bridge (20" span, 100 sitcks). Held over 125 lbs without breaking, so I don't know how strong it is. My calculations said it should have held at lest 400 lbs.

I found these documents to be useful when designing a bridge for a competition.

if it is upside down, you would right it by flipping it 180 degrees.

So you need books like Alice in Wonderland, strength of materials, bridge_beam_stress, chemistry_of_white_glue, and bridge_design..
You can even quote my original pictures of this bridge supporting 25 lbs..
