- For built horizontal and vertical bars, see Bars.
A bar is a sub-type of building material. All metals are created as bars at a smelter, whether processed from ores, alloyed with other metals, or melted down from existing metal items. Refined coal, ash, potash, pearlash, and tallow soap are also created as bars.
A bar is the base unit of metal, charcoal, coke, potash, ash, pearlash, and tallow soap.
Most bars are not an end-product, but are used for something else:
All types of bars can be used in roads and other constructions, as well as built as horizontal or vertical bars. (Be aware that some purposes suggest the use of fire-safe materials.)
"Bars" of adamantine metal are referred to as "wafers", but when used as building material they function the same as any other bars.
