About Brick Slab

Brick Slab is a half-height building block with the same brick texture as a full block of bricks. It is purely decorative and works well for roofs, paths, floors, and smaller details where a full block would look too bulky.

Like other slabs, you can place it in the top or bottom half of a block space, and two slabs in the same space form a full block. Brick Slabs can also be waterlogged, so they are useful for drains, ponds, or other water features.

How to get Brick Slab

You can get Brick Slabs by crafting them from bricks. Place three bricks in a horizontal row on a crafting table to make six slabs. You can also use a stonecutter to cut a block of bricks into two slabs, which is handy if you already have brick blocks stored away.
