Concrete

"More intensely coloured than stained terracotta, use concrete if you’re going for a bright blocks of uniform colour, that - handily enough - won’t burn to the ground like wool."

- Ash Davis

Concrete is a solid block which comes in the 16 regular dye colors.

Hardening concrete powder


Concrete is formed when concrete powder comes into contact with a block of water (source block or flowing). It is not formed by contact with rain, cauldrons, particles, or similar.

Breaking
Concrete requires a pickaxe to be mined. When mined without a pickaxe, it will drop nothing.

Usage
Concrete's bright and solid colors makes it useful for decoration. It has more pronounced colors than terracotta, and unlike wool, is not flammable.

As a building material, its hardness is slightly higher than stone, but its blast resistance is significantly lower.
