- # Expanding and Repairing Stations
- In Space Station 14, it is common for players to want to expand the station, or repair holes left by meteors or other damage.
- ## Lattice
- Lattice is bare rodwork placed in empty space. It's used as a foundation for building and anchoring objects onto the station.

- You can create lattice by placing rods on empty space using [color=yellow][bold][keybind="Use"][/bold][/color]. Remember you can craft steel sheets into rods using the construction menu.
- Lattice cannot hold pressure, and all gasses will leak out into space through it.
- You can use wirecutters to remove lattice by using [color=yellow][bold][keybind="Use"][/bold][/color] on them.
- If the game is preventing you from placing lattice, it's because there is another separated grid too close to the grid you're trying to expand. You can use a wirecutter to remove the offending grid.
- ## Hull Tiles
- Hull tiles are solid foundation for the station, where all the other parts of the station rest upon.

- Lattice can be made into hull tiles by using either steel or almost any type of floor tile on them by pressing [color=yellow][bold][keybind="Use"][/bold][/color].
- This will convert the lattice into a hull tile, which can hold pressure and gasses.
- It is advised to use floor tiles to replace lattice instead of steel sheets, as you can craft 4 floor tiles from a single steel sheet.
- You can use an RCD to deconstruct hull tiles into lattice.
