Tiles are the squares that form a map. They are approximately two meters long, two meters wide, and three meters high.[1] However, the physics calculations assume a tile size of 2.8 meters high and a tick rate of 10 ticks per second, and from the listed speeds (in km/h) and gaits (ticks per 100 tiles) and the tick rate of 10 ticks per second, a tile would be about 8x8 feet (2.4×2.4 meters). There are 48×48 tiles in a 1×1 embark; this is also the scale of overland travel tiles in adventure mode. 16×16 local tiles, the maximum embark size, covers a region map tile. A single region map tile (the maximum embark size) would contain 768×768 embark tiles (approx. 6144 feet or 1873 meters across). As worlds can have between 17 and 257 region map tiles, a world in Dwarf Fortress is between 20 and 300 miles (32 and 481 kilometers) across with a maximum area of 89,434 square miles (231,632 kilometers squared)– which is about 4% smaller than the United Kingdom.
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 others will only be done in floor tiles.
Stairs
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
Both naturally-occurring and constructed walls span across two z-levels, the bottom wall section and floor and the top floor section:

▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ -| |
▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ----> Floor -|
Smoothed and engraved walls span across only one z-level, the bottom wall section and floor. The floor above the wall can become "open space" by two methods: felling a tree above the wall, and digging a down stair above the wall, which is technically "open" (by exposing the tile below).

Supports and Fortifications
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 block normal movement, but not unintended movement (dodging, being thrown, swept by current, etc). Nor do they block fluids.
