Why? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship, regardless of how heavily a ship may be loadedTVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。" C7 d- F/ f7 M! @1 `# W

The Incredible Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germanytvb now,tvbnow,bttvb" p8 s: P9 N2 w" t6 p& Q- J3 [
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.
, M. c8 ^( f! {# y; S' ?( r. _公仔箱論壇The 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.

The aqueduct was finally completed and opened to the public in 2003.
