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 & Z# i; R/ c3 a0 u% K) b( ]4 P公仔箱論壇) A6 i2 ]2 w; [: s( I/ J

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. & w8 g, L0 z% }1 E: E% fThe 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. 9 m9 x) u/ V9 K9 R

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. 4 f3 o' G/ C( U+ b, o- ptvb now,tvbnow,bttvb - t+ r: j$ o" ltvb now,tvbnow,bttvb 4 t! ]8 o5 N5 m$ ]- A/ i: }tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb[attach]1486500[/attach]公仔箱論壇! ~" W$ d( I- s$ ^3 C [attach]1486501[/attach]公仔箱論壇+ }8 {4 e6 S5 U! l/ N [attach]1486502[/attach]5.39.217.77:88981 z% e& R$ X9 i0 L: S1 j) V6 j7 F [attach]1486503[/attach]tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb5 p; a" _2 D9 c [attach]1486504[/attach]tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb: B3 U, u7 ]0 _# Q) T' G! m [attach]1486505[/attach] 7 g3 a5 q$ R) e; h1 y' \ ) d+ y" m K3 V公仔箱論壇作者: busyfun 時間: 2011-10-4 11:33 AM
