The figure shown is a hemisphere with a radius of 8 feet. To find the volume, we’ll use the formula for the volume of a hemisphere:

\[
V = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3
\]

Given:
- Radius \( r = 8 \) feet
- Use \( \pi \approx 3.14 \)

### Step-by-Step Solution

1. **Calculate \( r^3 \):**
   \[
   r^3 = 8^3 = 512
   \]

2. **Substitute values into the hemisphere volume formula:**
   \[
   V = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{4}{3} \cdot 3.14 \cdot 512
   \]

3. **Simplify the constants:**
   \[
   V = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{4 \cdot 3.14 \cdot 512}{3}
   \]

4. **Calculate inside the parentheses first:**
   \[
   4 \cdot 3.14 \cdot 512 = 6425.6
   \]

5. **Divide by 3:**
   \[
   \frac{6425.6}{3} = 2141.87
   \]

6. **Multiply by \( \frac{1}{2} \):**
   \[
   V = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2141.87 = 1070.94 \, \text{cubic feet}
   \]

### Final Answer
The volume of the hemisphere is approximately:

\[
\boxed{1070.94 \, \text{ft}^3}
\]
