It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water! 3 q6 a7 o( @# `7 u1 J: iWhy? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship, regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded 8 `- Y- X, y4 |) h' m5.39.217.77:8898 2 x) y) F# n( F7 U9 q7 ?8 I4 f; ptvb now,tvbnow,bttvb 2 L( z$ p2 Q7 F2 J0 G8 x fThe Incredible Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germany ' D1 r0 s( i- y/ I& C$ s/ IThe 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. 1 }3 J2 |8 _# v' ` X' {2 h; }& _5.39.217.77:8898The 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. * K1 R- |. u8 @5 D/ O7 `

The aqueduct was finally completed and opened to the public in 2003. 1 Y0 P x/ X- R公仔箱論壇5 {( M) D: D7 S. W) L! V( |% j: G
