It seems that the reason why submerged 7/7 Fortifications don't block creatures is because the upper fluid level of the fortification is open:

This article is about an older version of DF.

Tiles are the squares that form a map. A tile consists of two sections—a wall section and a floor section, shown in cross-section like this: 

▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -|
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |--> Wall Section
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -|
▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Floor Section

When digging and building this is important, since some designations and constructions will only be done in wall tiles and some others will only be done in floor tiles.

Stairs[edit]

Building a stairway consists of two elements: an up stair and a down stair, each element is built only in the matching tile section, across two z-levels, like this: 

▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -|                                  -|
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                                   |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |--> Wall Section                   |--> Open Space
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                                   |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                                   |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -|                                  -|
▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Floor          ▓      ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Down Stair
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -|                   ▒▒▒            -|
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                     ▒▒▒           |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |--> Wall Section       ▒▒▒         |--> Up Stair
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                         ▒▒▒       |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                           ▒▒▒     |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -|                             ▒▒▒  -|
▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Floor          ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Floor

An up-down stair or building both up and down stairs in the same tile, works like this: 

▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -|                   ▒▒▒            -|               -|
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                     ▒▒▒           |                |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |--> Wall Section       ▒▒▒         |--> Up Stair    | Up/Down
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                         ▒▒▒       |                |  Stair
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒  |                           ▒▒▒     |                |
▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -|                             ▒▒▒  -|                |
▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Floor          ▓      ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Down Stair -|

Walls[edit]

Both natural occurring and constructed walls span across two z-levels, the bottom wall section and floor and the top floor section: 

               -|
                |
                |--> Open Space Wall
                |

▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Floor       -|

Supports and Fortifications[edit]

Unlike walls supports span only one z-level, allow liquids and movement, and don't create a floor on top. Constructed fortifications are basically the same but block movement as well. Note, however, that fully submerged (depth of 7/7) fortifications no longer block creature movement.

Statues[edit]

Statues block normal movement, but not unintended movement (dodging, being thrown, swept by current, etc.). Statues do not block fluids.

Special Tiles[edit]

There are some natural occurring special tiles, these can't be recreated[Verify]:

Murky Pool tile[edit]

Occur on at least[Verify] 2 z-levels, as an open space wall section with an open space floor section, and in the lowest z-level another open space wall section (filled with water) with a murky pool floor section, the lower open space wall section can fill with rain water and during winter with an ice wall[Verify]
