Brick And Block Quantity Calculator

Brick And Block Quantity: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers wall area (m2 or sq ft). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.

Brick And Block Quantity Calculator is a planned calculator in the home and energy section of Super Calculator, covering home and garden.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: wall area (m2 or sq ft), unit size (label), joint thickness (mm), wall type (label) and waste (%).

Outputs: units required (n), packs or pallets (n), mortar volume (m3) and cost (currency).

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Units per square meter equal one divided by ((unit length plus joint) times (unit height plus joint)). A standard United Kingdom brick with a 10 millimeter joint gives 60 bricks per square meter of single skin, and the count doubles for a cavity wall with two skins.
