A deployable single truss with folding or removable chordal members and diagonals and orthogonal hinge joints for continuous and synchronous retraction and extension, in straight and curved configurations. A deployable dual rectangular truss comprised of two single trusses mated along two common chords. A deployable diamond truss comprised of two single trusses mated along one common chord. An end frame to close off or mount one of more ends of the deployable trusses. A primary orthogonal hinge joint to connect the chordal members and diagonals of the deployable trusses along a primary chord. A secondary orthogonal hinge joint to connect the chordal members and diagonals of the deployable trusses along a secondary chord.
