It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water! tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb( o9 x. Z" E! w/ j: W3 a
Why? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship, regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded- }, B: h |' c* x$ @8 Q7 L7 u/ ~

( r7 L" D" X( a" p' SThe Incredible Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germany5.39.217.76 O$ x# F4 Y2 T, S: U" r7 ^
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.
. N# x7 _& }4 c; A1 T, e4 ?4 Y X) V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. 2 g' H2 c, s+ a0 T

The aqueduct was finally completed and opened to the public in 2003. TVBNOW 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。$ M9 s5 F0 e6 J8 N
