Beaver Dams are small 1×1 structures in Ark: Survival Ascended created by Castoroides. They contain vital resources but attract the Castoroides’ ire should you invade them. Due to the abundance of resources these dams offer, they are always worth searching for in Ark.

Do Beaver Dams Respawn?
If you destroy a Beaver Dam in Ark: Survival Ascended, it will respawn quickly. However, it is important to note that these dams’ resources will not replenish upon respawning.

Beaver Dam Spawn Command
If you’re having trouble finding Metal in Ark: Survival Ascended, you can use spawn commands to have this item spawn in your inventory. To do this, you must open the cheat console by pressing the TAB key on your keyboard.
If you’re playing on PlayStation, you’ll need to hold down L1, R1, Square, and Triangle at once, and similarly, on Xbox, hold down LB, RB, X, and Y at once. Once the console opens, simply type in: “cheat summon beaverdam_C” and hit enter to add this resource directly to your inventory.
If you encounter a situation where the command does not work, try resetting your system or game.
