[[File:metal_bars_preview.png|right]]A '''bar''' (also known as an "ingot") is a sub-type of building material (interchangeable with a [[block]] for that purpose), and is the base individual unit of [[metal]], [[charcoal]], [[coke]], [[potash]], [[ash]], [[pearlash]], and [[soap]].  All [[metal]]s are created as bars at a [[smelter]], whether processed from [[ore]]s, [[alloy]]ed with other metals, or [[melt]]ed down from existing metal items.

With the exception of non-[[fire-safe]] materials, all bars are as durable as others - a wall made from bars of ash, charcoal or soap will last as long as one made from bars of [[steel]]. Bars are a storage unit and not an end product in and of themselves, being used for various other tasks:

All bars are 600 cm<sup>3</sup> in [[size]], which means up to 10 will fit into a [[Container#Quick_Reference|6000-capacity bin]]. The only exception to this 600 cm<sup>3</sup> size are possibly partially-used soap bars. In the real world, a [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c6/Gold_bullion_2.jpg 400-tr.oz. bar of gold] is approximately the same size, at 645 cm<sup>3</sup>.

In the real world, a single [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c6/Gold_bullion_2.jpg 400-tr.oz. bar of gold] is 645 cm<sup>3</sup>, which suggests that Dwarf Fortress's "bars" items consist of multiple bars (since a single "gold bars" item weighs 115 kilograms).
  
All types of bars can also be used to build [[workshop]]s, [[road]]s, [[bridge]]s, and other [[construction]]s. Different bars require different [[labor]]s in their construction: [[smith]]ing is used for metal bars and [[mason]]ry for all others (including bars of soap).

"Bars" of [[adamantine]] metal are referred to as "wafers", but when used as building material they function the same as any other bars.

:* '''Tile Color''' corresponds to how items made from that metal are displayed in game, foreground and background colors.
 +
:*'''Source''' indicates the specific ores that can provide a metal. If production of the metal is not guaranteed, a percent chance is indicated following the ore.
 +
:*'''Density''' is used to determine the different weight of finished objects.
 +
:*'''[[Material value]]''' is what the base value of an object made of this metal is multiplied by to determine its worth.
 +
::'''*''' - Values marked with an asterisk denote ores that can yield multiple metals.
 +
:*'''Value difference''' indicates the difference in material value between the metal and the ore, separated with commas in cases where multiple ore values differ. Also keep in mind that multiple bars are produced for each ore boulder smelted, increasing the value difference even further.
 +
::'''*''' - Values marked with an asterisk denote ores that can yield multiple metals. On average, the expected difference in value from smelting [[tetrahedrite]] is +1 and [[galena]] is +2.
