How to calculate no of bricks in 1m3 (cubic metre)

How to calculate no of bricks in 1m3 (cubic metre) | how many bricks in 1 cubic metre | how to calculate number of bricks in 1 cubic metre, in this topic we will learn about how to calculate number of brick per cubic metre in brickwork of wall.

We know that cement mortar is used as adhesive material in brickwork and strength of brickwork depend on thickness of mortar, proper curing of brick wall and quality of bricks. So we should need familiar with brickwork, most of Asian country building structure compromise of brick in wall so there is easy calculation how to calculate no of brick in 1m3 (cubic metre) of brickwork.

■ mortar thickness:- we know that mix of cement and sand it is known as cement mortar used as adhesive material or binding material in brick wall, cement mortar thickness will be 10 mm to 12 mm in brickwork, more than 12 mm or less than 10 mm mortar thickness decrease the strength of brickwork.

■ size of brick :– bricks have many size used in different country, but we consider standard size of bricks that is modular size which is measured in millimetre. Modular size of brick is 190 mm × 90 mm × 90 mm. It is important questions asked in several interview number of bricks present in 1 cubic metre.

How to calculate no of bricks in 1m3

Determine the number of bricks in 1 cubic metre you do the calculation in following steps:-

Given:- actual size of modular brick=190 mm × 90 mm × 90 mm, considering mortar thickness 10mm, after add this nominal size of brick is 200 × 100 × 100 in mm

Converting brick size in meter such as length = 200/ 1000 = 0.2m, width = 100/ 1000 = 0.1m and depth = 100/ 1000 = 0.1m.

Calculate the volume of 1 brick with mortar by multiplying its length by width by depth such as 0.2m × 0.1m × 0.1m = 0.002m3, so volume of 1 brick with mortar is 0.002m3

To find out number of bricks in 1m3 you divide 1m3 of brick wall by volume of 1 brick with mortar such as 1m3/ 0.002m3 = 500 nos, therefore number of bricks in 1 cubic metre are 500 nos.

Number of bricks in 1m3:- 500 number of bricks are used in 1m3 (cubic metre) of brickwork of modular brick size.

Regarding this, “how many bricks in 1 cubic meter?”, its depends on size of bricks, its application and manufacturer, generally there are 500 bricks in 1 cubic meter.
