[@SantoshYadav-hf6ut]

After instagram reel .. to check real or not 😂😂

[@hiwab41]

Same lol

[@kultureislame]

well video in instagram is still fake because there was cruise ship which seems impossible for it to pass through

[@vaishnavijamdhade2989]

Yes..😄

[@1800Slimmatik]

😂😂😂

[@Beingme-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-]

ys i too 😀😀😀

[@michelvanloon7871]

Before there were 2 drawbridges with a lock between them. The road was a dam between 2 lakes. The lakes were at a different waterlevel, but with a small difference of 5 to 10 cm. They leveled both lakes to the same hight, created the aquaduct and removed the drawbridges and the lock, creating 1 connected big lake. The old road was very busy 1+1 lanes, the new one is 2+2 lanes. A big improvement for road and water traffic, water animals have the whole lake now, and there are some islands created for birds near the aquaduct as part of the project.

[@annie9223]

Woah. Awesome!!

[@Lucy-je4uu]

Thank you, I was wondering how it was before.

[@waffenwrapp62]

thank you. because this guy's english is almost completely incomprehensible and there is no info on wikipedia.

[@sunilb3149]

Engineering R& D is amazing . Hatsoff to all the engineers who developed this master piece , also for engineers all over the world 🙏

[@TheFerrarimovement]

Yes hats off to pointless engineering

[@melissa5223]

Fascinating! Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I learned a lot!

[@schleck1234]

You get a lot of info in a short video. Thanks for this man! :)

[@arem6038]

Super informative and interesting. Thanks! Hope to visit someday!

[@saby8765]

Brilliant piece of Engineering, especially the explanation with Archimedes principle was spot on. It's also budget friendly than building a tunnel.

[@robinfranklin8001]

So beautiful. Engineers are amazing people.👍🏽🙂

[@aryasigit984]

Dutch colonialism made one of water bridge for irrigation rice field in my village east java Indonesia, I love that building Bridge water

[@nikephorosmostropus4606]

Di daerah mana om?

[@rezafadhil7613]

Ada di Desa Krebet Senggrong, Kecamatan Bululawang, Kabupaten Malang.

[@printempsetautomne3851]

Ada banyak jembatan dan bangunan buatan belanda tersebar diberbagai penjuru daerah2 Indonesia, dan sangat tahan beratus tahun, tahan gempa, banjir, dll. Mereka hebat ilmu konstruksinya.

[@riatalwani2183]

Too informative, amazing work!

[@kudatidur4854]

Ayyy your channel is so informative and benefitfull 🥺 keep going sir ! 🎉🎉

[@txlmu]

Thanks for the video!
This really gave me some information about this aqueduct 👍 😊

[@mnaw11]

Awesome video! Great explanations!

[@RGK504]

In the north of the Netherlands, in the provence Friesland you will vind many more auqaducts. The are great of you pass with a sailboat, there is no trubble with the hight of the mast.

[@kaatiedunn7028]

Thank you for this! Very informative!

[@robingdeal7385]

Thank you for this information! I didn't know this existed! Love you accent!

[@SuperSuperfries]

This is just one of the many dutch Aqueducts. Just like Ecoducts, an expensive animal crossing

[@patatpannenkoek4875]

new horizons?

[@Mantis_Teiresias]

AMAZING CONSTRUCTION !! I AM SPEECHLESS !!!

[@anisah_alhassan]

This is truly a masterpiece 🔥🔥🔥
AMAZING 🤩🔥🔥

[@Yugen-]

This is amazing!

[@ue4770]

An aspect behind the aqueduct is that the traffic along this waterway between the land and the Flevopolder is separated into boats with lower draft but no height restriction, that can pass over the aqueduct, and boats with higher draft but restricted height that pass underneath the bridge just half a kilometer to the northwest. Because of this, this solution avoids traffic interruptions as would be the case with a draw bridge, and is probably a lot more economic than having a high bridge that would allow sailboats to pass underneath.

[@rztrzt]

@The Structures Guy How do they drain the roadway when it rains?

[@celiaartemis5485]

Amazing and genius, the world keeps on giving.

[@shanicetownsend5169]

Thank you for your explanation

[@annie9223]

Thank you for making this video and explaining everything. ♥️

[@robkleinlangevelsloo259]

Well done!
I live quite close to this aquaduct, but I've never passed it. I use a road north of it to get into the Flevopolder.
Harderwijk is very difficult for you to pronounce. I understand. In English it would be:
Har- like in 'are' with an H,
-der- like 'her' with a D and
-wijk like 'wine' with a K at the end.
Thank you for your video.

[@AmongUs-mb4qx]

Amazing place, engineers well done this place 🙌🏼 thanks dude for this great video and all explanation about this wonderful place, cheers.

[@bayugs]

Very informative,permision to share...

[@ebenezerndanyuzwe9292]

Thank you for this

[@stronk9969]

I live in that city and driven on that road. Never realized there was an aqueduct there lmao.

[@gunzup5226]

Thank god the vid had captions

[@Nsalim15]

Lol, true..

[@RoyalRoche1]

Amazing structure

[@hansbetzema6084]

Designed by Grontmij, now Sweco

[@casavanissisampaguita0982]

wow, so awesome!

[@harryboer6747]

Superb ! Technology

[@asifm5153]

The roadway looks so normal, the overbridge appears like any other to a newcomer to the place

[@IndranathGaurTraveller]

Amazing

[@maymorales4108]

Our infrastructure in Puerto Rico can use experts of Netherlands to build our boat transport by uniting our rivers.

[@arnomrnym6329]

Thanks.👍🏾😎

[@qaifkhan5309]

If the Netherlands wants to save its land then the Dutch government should plant as many native trees in their country as possible. The trees take water from the land and hold the land firmly by their roots. There is no better natural way than mangroves to save the land lost in the sea, and the Netherlands will have to import sand from Arab countries. At least one thousand tons of sand should be imported to the Netherlands every year in large ships and coconut trees should be planted on the shores of the Netherlands.
(Suggestion from Pakistan)

[@redditstories2750]

Palm trees wont work.
Also. Im quite certain that there is not a single 'original' tree in the entirety of our country left. It is all planted haha.
God created the earth, the Dutch the Netherlands :).
Also, about that sand. You know those sand-structures in Dubai? The palm tree (haha) and stuff? And the famous Rio de Janeiro beach? (and so many other things)
Guess who build those? ;)

[@collectioneur]

You're talking about trees that take water from the land and tons of sand, so you obviously don't understand that the ground has to stay wet to stay firm, or you'll get just that: loose sand

[@raghubharadwaj7122]

Isn't roads prone to flooding if water level rises?

[@gamerced7357]

Wouldnt it be scary if a boat were to get pushed by a storm and into the land?

[@sandeepganguani9489]

Reminds me of 'Cerebral Aqueduct'.

[@nelsonkwecu]

Good video

[@amarmakwana4404]

Please solve my confusen , how flow ship in 3m way

[@Ahsan406]

Great love from Pakistan

[@khadijaalmaimani8895]

👏🏼👏🏼

[@Tranquilitybytes24]

Do they do the maintanance??wil the water level rise ???

[@dutchman7623]

All infrastructure works are inspected regularly, and if needed maintenance will be performed.
The Veluwemeer (Veluwe Lake) is water level controlled, and stays stable, if it rains we switch the pumps on.

[@Oldjongcrow416]

🔥👈 AMAZING¡¡!

To get to school, i have to go trough this thing on bike. Lets just say that its quiete a challenge😂

[@tillym123456789]

Can it flood?? Like if the ocean rises enough or something?

[@thestructuresguy8355]

It's definitely possible given how fast the climate in changing

[@tillym123456789]

I wonder what would happen in cases like that, I know that just a river by my place has its water height change drastically depending the year etc. So I just was curious how it works here. There was one year where an entire area was like dried up and desert and a different year it flooded so badly. I can only imagine how drastic a change from the ocean 😅

[@thestructuresguy8355]

@@tillym123456789 I think some cities close to the water surfaces will have to be abounded. I just released a video about how climate change will affect engineering: ruclips.net/video/a9-EOHSjERI/видео.html

[@thebicycleman8062]

My friend I recommend you do speech therapy and I have seen many people cure their rhotacism and lotacism which you have both. It is very very curable but you just need to be consistent with your trainer and practises. Goodluck and great video

RUclips reels 😁

[@amarmakwana4404]

How it's Possible , ship is how to traveling only 3m way 🙄

[@thestructuresguy8355]

The depth is 3m but the width is 19 m so ships pass through a 19 m opening, see 1:23
