Any time you see a checkerboard pattern like that it means that the surface texture associated with that element is missing.   Click on the slab and examine the settings.

To enhance what Karl has said, the texture image file needs to be in your loaded libraries.

Check the surface settings to see what it should be or you should see a warning in the Library Manager.
