It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water! 4 J+ `8 Z# W$ X( M4 \. Y; xWhy? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship, regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded公仔箱論壇7 u( x! @' a2 Q; N& t" I) E , l( s5 z$ H% o+ W( u; m

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. + M4 m6 d. b1 Q9 r3 l5 d! @, PTVBNOW 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。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. 5.39.217.77:8898" x. B/ U- B8 d4 G

Construction 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. & H! m3 U1 z$ ? 3 z3 H1 j5 l# C0 D . |* Y$ B5 f( u; i5 O8 e( o7 l5 @8 P[attach]1486500[/attach]8 [; S1 V& |2 _, |, N( R0 Y [attach]1486501[/attach] & P: d: P, L. ?$ b+ m& A' @% Y/ vtvb now,tvbnow,bttvb[attach]1486502[/attach] " |3 G6 q+ W5 Y$ `1 w/ |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。[attach]1486503[/attach]/ v- I# i: x- d) ^1 L. w; y!
