Did that bridge have to be designed to withstand the additional weight of ship and barge traffic, 3 s8 `1 n6 ~1 B6 m3 oOr just the weight of the water? 6 r( S' k+ ~% Swww3.tvboxnow.com , g' ^2 o8 g7 r; A8 }Answer:www3.tvboxnow.com# R5 E/ C* o& x4 c0 v( ]1 Z) J

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 : G4 E# o& `, i' ] 7 m- L+ V h2 s% H" s, BTVBNOW 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。 ( X5 D, T7 d3 L- O8 b$ f% ttvb now,tvbnow,bttvbThe Incredible Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germany2 J ?, ~7 |: S3 P* _. s
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. % v7 D0 ^6 X, ?* T9 l/ V* f, E- rtvb now,tvbnow,bttvbThe 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. 公仔箱論壇- q; p, y+ X# x+ D$ l. U

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. ( s5 O6 k* u4 g 4 e+ L1 E% y5 H8 `+ w; T: t. t' d; ?tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb+ E& |0 u L4 \2 i" [& i [attach]1486500[/attach] ( D!
