Any general modeling tutorial will cover what you want to do.

Bridges are pretty easy, just visualize it in your head. Unless your going for a support bridge, there mostly arched and blocky.
Such as this, (different engine, same execution)

Study bridge designs, such as on google.
If your still new to 3d modeling attempt some smaller structures and get into plane and box modeling which seems to be the best at what your attempting.

theres no real difference.
the only problem u got is u dont know ur tools.
so u cant visuaslise the process of making it.
tip: just start, and see where u end up.
the best way to make anything is to just start and try new things. thata the way you should fix your problem.

You don't find tutorials that show you every step in modeling a building or a bridge that suits your needs. Your goal is to be able to see those steps in your mind and perform them within the modeling program. It's more a matter of learning your tools, like Tweek said, and learning to model. Once you can model, your imagination is your only limit.
I would look for some modeling tutorials.

There are probably about 1000 ways to build a building in 3ds max. Some resulting in a better base, but you really just need to find some good tutorials and you'll learn the tools more.
Ill pm you some links to tutorials. There are also some good ones in the release section of this forum.
