The 4,400,000 cubic yards of concrete used in Hoover Dam and its adjoining structures would be sufficient to build a concrete walk four feet wide and two and three-quarters inches thick entirely around the earth at the equator! When full, Lake Mead holds enough water to cover all of New York State to a depth of one foot. Every two minutes and wenty seconds of each day and night, for 625 days, a giant bucket holding 16 tons of concrete was poured into Hoover Dam.
