It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water! 9 ?1 X6 h% T, w- Y$ }
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 4 \! ]+ s0 f1 W" u公仔箱論壇 + v( e: M& y; jTVBNOW 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。公仔箱論壇9 H; H4 f r. s' Z5 d The Incredible Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germany公仔箱論壇% y, a& `+ \+ @* Y/ @" I0 H% l4 A e
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. 2 q" W3 f8 R/ O. Z" X5.39.217.77:8898The 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. $ E0 O+ I1 k6 c& }( b. F* W2 ~

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. $ J9 p5 z& _. p. b' g0 w
