Brick Calculation for 9 inch wall per sqft
how to calculate number of bricks per square foot in 9 inch wall
● Solve :- in this topic we have to calculate number of bricks per square foot in 9 inch wall, we should have taken Indian Standard brick size which is-
 |
| Brick size |
Indian Standard brick size:- = 230mm×115mm×75mm
We should convert millimetre into metre = 0.230m×0.115m×0.075m
Volume of brick= 0.230m×0.115m×0.075m = 0.00198 m3
We have taken mortar size of 10 mm which are required for joining the brick wall formation

Size of brick with mortar=240mm×125mm×85mm
Volume of brick with mortar in metre cube = 0.240m×0.125m×0.085m =0.0025m3
Given:- Area of brick wall 1 feet square and the thickness of wall is 9 inchVolume of 9 inch brick wall of 1 square feet area
Vw = 1 ft2 × 9″
Volume = 1 ft2 × 0.75 ft =0.75 cft
We should convert value of brick wall in metre cube
Volume = 0.75/35.3147 = 0.02123 m3
We have to calculate number of bricks in 9 inch wall so we have formula for brick calculation is divide volume of wall by volume of one brick with mortar
Formula for brick calculation is used to find out number of bricks calculation
Number of bricks calculation = volume of wall÷ volume of one brick with mortar
Number of brick = 0.02123/0.0025 =8.432
Consider 5% wastage of bricks during transportation and storage
Wastage = 8.432×5/100 =0.4216
Total number of bricks=8.432+0.4216 = 8.8536 nos
9 nos bricks present in 9 inch brick wall per sqft
Brick calculation for 4 inch wall per sqft
how to calculate number of bricks per square foot in 4 inch wall
● Solve :- in this topic we have to calculate number of bricks per square foot in 4 inch wall we should have taken Indian Standard brick size which is-
Indian Standard brick size:-
= 230mm×115mm×75mm
We should convert millimetre into metre
= 0.230m×0.115m×0.075m
Volume of brick= 0.230m×0.115m×0.075m = 0.00198 m3
We have taken mortar size of 10 mm which are required for joining the brick wall formation
Size of brick with mortar=240mm×125mm×85mm
Volume of brick with mortar in metre cube
= 0.240m×0.125m×0.085m =0.0025m3
Given:- Area of brick wall 1 feet square and the thickness of brick wall is 4 inch
Volume of 4 inch brick wall of 1 square feet area
Vw = 1 ft2 × 4″
Volume = 1 ft2 × 0.333ft =0.333 cft
We should convert value of brick wall in metre cube
Volume = 0.333/35.3147 = 0.00942 m3
We have to calculate number of bricks in 4 inch wall so we should divide volume of wall by volume of one brick with mortar
Number of bricks= volume of wall÷ volume of one brick with mortar
Number of brick = 0.00942/0.0025 =3.768
Consider 5% wastage of bricks during transportation and storage
Wastage = 3.768×5/100 =0.1884
Total number of bricks=3.768+0.1884 = 3.9564 (approx)
4 nos brick are present in 4 inch brick wall per sqft
