BRICK WORK QUANTITY



Considering 1:4 ratios for cement mortar in 150mm thick brickwork.
Calculation of quantity for 5 cu.m volume in brickwork as follows:
Size of brick = 19 cm x9 cm x9 cm.
Vol. of brick = (0.19 x 0.09 x 0.09) cu.m
                     = 0.00154cu.m.
Vol. of brick with cement mortar
                     = (0.2 x 0.1 x 0.1)   cu.m
                     = 0.002 cu.m.
No. of bricks in 5 cu.m
                     = 5 ¸ (vol. of one brick with mortar).
                     = 5 ¸ 0.002
                     = 2500              
Vol. of 2500 bricks = 2500 x vol. of one brick without mortar.
                              =2500 x 0.00154
                              = 3.85cu.m.
Vol. of mortar = 5 – 3.85 = 1.15 cu.m.
Add 15% (Bulkage + wastage)
\ Vol. of wet mortar = 1.15 + {1.15 x (15 ¸ 100)}
                            = 1.323cu.m
Vol. of dry mortar = 1.323 + 33% in wet mortars for interlocking =1.759cu.m
Vol. of cement = 1.759 ¸ (1+4) =0.352cu.m
\ No. of cement bags = 0.352 ¸ 0.035
                                    =10.057bags.
                                    » 10.00bags
Vol. of sand = 0.352 x 4
                     = 1.408cu.m.
