The phrase "a single span of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe a specific, uninterrupted length or duration of something, often in contexts related to time, distance, or measurement.
Example: "The bridge was constructed to cover a single span of 200 meters, allowing for smooth passage over the river."
Alternatives: "one continuous stretch of" or "a solitary length of".
Symphony No. 13 (1933), by contrast, was a revelation, its three movements conjoined into a single span of nocturnal contemplation and disturbance.
Significant modeling error can occur if a single span of the band is modeled as a simply supported, axially moving beam.
In the 14th century Jean Ravy, continuing the work of Pierre de Chelles, enlarged the gallery windows of the chevet, decorating them with gables, and put up fantastic flying buttresses with a single span of 15 m.
Comparisons of the two designs are made during a long time period of 5.0 ms, initiated by a pressure impulse lasting 0.05 ms applied to a single span of a continuous plate.
The principle of operation of our Omnipolarizer is schematically illustrated in Fig. 2. Basically, the Omnipolarizer is simply composed by a single span of nonlinear telecom fiber, where a signal beam nonlinearly interacts through a four-wave-mixing process with its own counter-propagating replica produced by means of a back-reflection at the fiber output, see Fig. 2a.
The Seonyu Footbridge, completed in 2002 in Seoul, Korea, is currently the longest footbridge made by UHPFRC (Ductal®) with a single span of 120 m and no central support (Fig. 17c).

In 1502, Leonardo produced a drawing of a single span 720 feet bridge as part of a civil engineering project for Ottoman Sultan Beyazid II of Constantinople.
Fracture critical bridges not only suffer from significant distress, but according to engineers, if a single span, beam or joint of such a bridge fails, the whole thing could come tumbling down.
In this paper the variations in dynamic properties (eigenfrequency and damping) due to seasonal effects of a single span, ballasted railway bridge are studied.
