1640 ft truss? Can you post a sketch of the section/elevation. I am not familiar with puter truss.
 
If you're actually in charge of designing the project, I believe there are some consultants out there that specialize in some of the issues involved, and you need to start looking for them.

If this is some kind of hypothetical/homework/thesis type project, student posts are not permitted in the forums.
