There are about 500,000 cu yd of mass concrete and another 100,000 cu yd of reinforced concrete. Topics covered include cement investigation and selection, special cement specifications, concrete studies, stress analysis, and construction. The Investigation and use of Portland-pozzolan cement for the dam is described in detail. Emphasizes the control of mass concrete from the design standpoint.
