It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water! ) |4 c3 b2 |: Q' B' ]; v5 V
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& c9 S; p- e( _- L, A

The Incredible Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germanytvb now,tvbnow,bttvb2 ]. d! n" {' ?, C* i8 X
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. s/ N, {, F. G; |( L9 n
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. tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb' [! H4 }/ |; W% b5 A2 o3 h
