Dwarf cancels Construct Building: Item blocking site

This occurs when a dwarf is trying to clear the tile(s) of a building site and there is an item which the dwarf is not allowed to pick up lying on the ground where you want to place the building.

For instance...

  • ... the item is forbidden.
  • ... the item is marked for dumping.
  • ... the item is tasked to be used in a different building.
  • ... the item is tasked to be hauled to a stockpile.
  • ... the item is tasked to be hauled to the trade depot.

If the item is tasked for something, it will probably be taken away very quickly as that job is handled; you can often just un-suspend the construction and it will complete with no further error. Forbidden items, however, will have to be manually unforbidden in order to make construction possible.
