Black Marble Stair belongs to the Stone Building category and costs Black Marble ×2. Valheim never states the rules that decide whether a piece will place, so they are read from the game files here: the surface it needs, the water it cannot touch, and whether it must have something above it. Those are what turn a red ghost back to blue.

How to build Black Marble Stair
What do you need to build Black Marble Stair in Valheim?
Black Marble ×2. Materials have to be inside the build radius of the station, not just in your inventory, which is the usual reason a piece stays greyed out with everything apparently to hand.
What station does Black Marble Stair need?
A Stonecutter, and you have to be standing inside its build radius. Moving the station or adding another one is what extends where you can build, not upgrading it.
How much health does Black Marble Stair have?
500. That is structural health, separate from any durability an item has — it is what a raid, a fire or your own hammer has to chew through.
Does Black Marble Stair decay or need a roof?
It is worn down by rain, fire, ash rain, snow. A piece under a roof and connected to the ground through supporting pieces keeps its full health; one left exposed loses health until it breaks.
Where is Black Marble Stair in the build menu?
Under Stone Building, on Stonecutter. Build pieces are unlocked by picking up their materials rather than by finding a plan, so if it is missing from your hammer the answer is always a resource you have not carried home yet.
Does Black Marble Stair hold up a structure in Valheim?
It does — this piece carries support, so anything attached to it inherits a share of what it has. That share shrinks with every connection and shrinks faster sideways than upwards, which is why a long horizontal run fails where the same number of pieces stacked vertically would not.
