It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water!
# }) R: y0 @5 d/ A9 oWhy? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship, regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded

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.; U* B. v _5 R) G, o
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. www.tvboxnow.com- K7 i+ L! ~% V2 C: k5 _- q

The aqueduct was finally completed and opened to the public in 2003. 公仔箱論壇/ E/ D N0 s+ |- l! b2 j4 k- ~: w
