=== Natural generation ===
=== From concrete powder ===
Red and white concrete can be found in [[Minecraft:trial chambers]] throughout many various murals in an atrium.
 
=== Post-generation ===
[[File:ConcretePowderUsage.gif|thumb|right|Concrete powder becoming solid concrete on contact with water. Notice the [[sand]] block falls through the water, while the concrete powder instantly solidifies on contact with water. (Click for bigger video view area)]]
 
Concrete is formed when [[Minecraft:concrete powder]] comes into contact with a block of [[Minecraft:water]] (source block, flowing or [[Minecraft:waterlogged]]‌{{only|JE}}). If next to a waterlogged block, it must be adjacent to the sides where water can flow out from, such as the open sides of [[Minecraft:stairs]], but not the back side of stairs or any sides of waterlogged [[Minecraft:leaves]].

=== Renewability ===
==== Renewability ====
Concrete is [[Minecraft:renewable]] as all of the [[Minecraft:crafting]] ingredients of concrete powder are renewable. However, without glitches, sand is renewably obtained only through the [[Minecraft:wandering trader]], which spawns infrequently and allows a limited number of trades per spawn, making it impractical to obtain sand (and by extension, concrete) through renewable means.

Template:For Template:Infobox block Concrete is a Minecraft:block created when Minecraft:concrete powder touches Minecraft:water. It comes in the sixteen Minecraft:dye colors.

Obtaining

Breaking

Concrete requires a Minecraft:pickaxe to be mined. When mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

Template:Breaking row

From concrete powder

Concrete is formed when Minecraft:concrete powder comes into contact with a block of Minecraft:water (source block, flowing or Minecraft:waterlogged‌Template:Only). If next to a waterlogged block, it must be adjacent to the sides where water can flow out from, such as the open sides of Minecraft:stairs, but not the back side of stairs or any sides of waterlogged Minecraft:leaves.

Renewability

Concrete is Minecraft:renewable as all of the Minecraft:crafting ingredients of concrete powder are renewable. However, without glitches, sand is renewably obtained only through the Minecraft:wandering trader, which spawns infrequently and allows a limited number of trades per spawn, making it impractical to obtain sand (and by extension, concrete) through renewable means.

Natural generation

Red and white concrete can be found in Minecraft:trial chambers throughout many various murals in an atrium.

Usage

The bright and solid colors of concrete make it useful for decoration. It has more pronounced colors than Minecraft:stained terracotta, and unlike Minecraft:wool, is not flammable.

As a building material, its Minecraft:hardness is slightly higher than stone, but its Minecraft:blast resistance is significantly lower.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>
