Structural Materials
Bulk metals, ceramics, and composites sourced from solid stellar bodies. Structural Materials are the most widely used resource in the game — the raw foundation of all construction and development.
Tier
Tier 1 — Primary resource.
Role
Structural Materials are the base input for all construction activity. They are required in large quantities at every stage of expansion, from the earliest holdings to advanced industrial development.
They are also the direct input for Industrial Alloys.
