<sdt> (Block-Level Structured Document Tag)

This element specifies the presence of a structured document tag around one or more block-level structures (paragraphs, tables, etc.). The two child elements of this element shall be used to specify the properties and content of the current structured document tag via the <sdtPr> and <sdtContent> elements, respectively.

example: 
<w:body>
  <w:sdt>
    <w:sdtPr>
      <w:alias w:val="address"/>
    </w:sdtPr>
    <w:sdtContent>
      <w:p>
        …
      </w:p>
    </w:sdtContent>
  </w:sdt>
  …
</w:body>

The <sdt> element specifies the structured document tag, the child <sdtPr> element contains the friendly name property set to address, and the <sdtContent> element contains a single paragraph (it is a block-level structured document tag). ]
