The Bucket of Concrete is a metal bucket filled with wet concrete. It is the standard mortar for brick and stone building and for the large fire stations of metalworking.
Brick Wall, Stone Wall and the brick and stone frames of the Masonry skill all take it. So do Construct Primitive Forge, Construct Smelting Furnace, the Dome Kiln and the Cooking Pit. A full bucket gives about four uses before only the empty Bucket is left.
The bucket is mixed by hand. Mix Bucket of Concrete stirs one Bag of Concrete Powder into a Bucket of water. No skill or station is needed. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
Masonry is the main use. Brick Wall builds a Brick Wall (Poor) at Masonry 2 and a Brick Wall (Good) at Masonry 5. Brick Window Frame (Basic) and Brick Window Frame (Craftsman) follow the same steps. Brick Wall (Short) builds a Brick Fence (Good) at Masonry 5. Stone Wall, Stone Doorframe and Stone Window Frame need Masonry 2. The Tile Floor and the Stone Cabinet take it as well.
Metalworking needs it for the stations. Construct Primitive Forge, Simple Forge and Construct Advanced Forge all accept it. Construct Primitive Furnace, Construct Smelting Furnace and Construct Blast Furnace do the same. The Dome Kiln, the Stone Mill, the Simple Cooking Pit and the Cooking Pit complete the list.
The bucket also goes into weapons. Make Kettle Maul at Maintenance 4 and Make Bucket Maul at Maintenance 5 both accept it. Research Craft on the bucket teaches both recipes.
The Bucket of Clay Cement does the same jobs with the same four uses and the same weight. Concrete needs a Bag of Concrete Powder. Clay cement needs clay, water and sand or grass instead.
How to Get Bucket of Concrete
Mix Bucket of Concrete takes one Bucket, ten units of water from any container and one Bag of Concrete Powder. The recipe needs no skill and no station. A Carved Bucket works too and gives a Carved Bucket of Concrete instead.

Notes
- The empty Bucket comes back when the concrete runs out.
- Research Craft on the bucket teaches Make Bucket Maul and Make Kettle Maul.
- A Bag of Concrete Powder is the one powder the mix needs.
- A full bucket is heavy, so mixing close to the building site saves effort.
