-A '''block''' is a sub-type of building material. [[Stone]] and [[wood]] can be shaped into blocks at the [[Mason's workshop]] or [[Carpenter's workshop]].  [[Glass]] can be formed as blocks at a [[Glass Furnace]], and [[metal]] blocks can be made at the [[forge]] from a single metal [[bar]] (or, in the case of [[adamantine]], from '''four''' wafers).
-A single block is required in order to build a [[well]], [[pump]], or [[ashery]]. Blocks can also be used in place of raw stone or wood in [[road]]s, [[bridge]]s, and other major [[construction]]s (but not in items like [[craft]]s or [[furniture]]), but the difference is purely in the value. A pillar made out of normal stone is called a rough pillar.
-Blocks, unlike raw stone or wood, can stack in [[bin]]s in [[bar]]/block [[stockpile]]s.
-Blocks have a [[Value#Items with material but without quality|base value]] of 5{{verify}}, compared to the raw material value of 3{{verify}} for stone, wood or glass; metal bars already have a base value of 5{{verify}}. Blocks do not have [[quality]] levels.
-Stone blocks are sometimes used as materials during [[strange mood]]s.
