Usage

For information about the placement mechanics of all stairs, see Stairs § Usage.

Packed ice brick stairs are purely a decorative block used for building.

They do not melt when exposed to high light levels and do not create water when broken.

Unlike regular packed ice, packed ice brick stairs use the default friction value and do not cause players and entities on top of them to slide.
