It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water!
5 X: q0 o* B- F9 s5 ^tvb now,tvbnow,bttvbWhy? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship, regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded

The Magdeburg Water Bridge is a navigable aqueduct in Germany that connects the Elbe-Havel Canal to the Mittelland Canal and allows ships to cross over the Elbe River. At 918 meters, it is the longest navigable aqueduct in the world.
1 _8 g+ s$ U) V2 w. P Itvb now,tvbnow,bttvbThe Elbe-Havel and Mittelland canals had previously met near Magdeburg but on opposite sides of the Elbe Ships moving between the two had to make a 12-kilometer detour, descending from the Mittelland Canal through the Rothensee boat lift into the Elbe, then sailing downstream on the river, before entering the Elbe-Havel Canal through Niegripp lock. Low water levels in the Elbe often prevented fully laden canal barges from making this crossing, requiring time-consuming off-loading of cargo. : L* R% @2 S0 p/ W' n1 m' G
" ]! h6 V3 ` L2 \- q5 U9 Y" VConstruction of the water link was started as early as in the 1930s but due to the World War 2 and subsequent division of Germany the work remained suspended till 1997. The aqueduct was finally completed and opened to the public in 2003. ) N# I5 r: W* |, o6 f
