Number of bricks required in 1m3 of wall

Brick Wall

Number of bricks required in wall depends upon the size of brick.

Here I am taking Standard size of brick = 240mm*115mm*57mm as per NBC

Assume the size of mortar as 10mm

Size of brick with mortar = 250mm*125*67mm

Volume of 1 brick = (240*115*57)/10003=1.573*10-3 m3

Volume of 1 brick with mortar= (250*125*67)/10003=2.093*10-3 m3

Volume of mortar = 2.093*10-3-1.573*10-3 m3=5.2*10-4 m3

No of bricks required in 1m3 wall without mortar= 1/1.573*10-3 =635.72 numbers

No of bricks required in 1m3 wall with mortar = 1/2.093*10-3 =477.78 numbers

Assume 10% wastage ,

No of bricks for 1m3 wall construction = 477.78*1.1 =525 number
