How many bricks required in 1 cum.

Question

Accepted Answer

The number of bricks required in 1 cubic meter depends on the size of the bricks and the thickness of the mortar joints.

The size of the bricks and the thickness of the mortar joints determine the number of bricks needed.
Standard brick sizes are commonly used in construction.
For example, if the size of the brick is 200mm x 100mm x 75mm and the thickness of the mortar joint is 10mm, the calculation would be as follows:
- Volume of one brick = 0.2m x 0.1m x 0.075m = 0.0015 cubic meters
- Volume of mortar joint = 0.2m x 0.1m x 0.01m = 0.0002 cubic meters
- Total volume of bricks and mortar in 1 cubic meter = 1 - 0.0002 = 0.9998 cubic meters
- Number of bricks required = 0.9998 / 0.0015 = 665.87 (approx. 666 bricks)
