Calculate No.

Of Bricks
IN MILIMETER (MM) and
Cost of Bricks
Brick size in mm = 190 mm x 90 mm x 90 mm (WITHOUT M0RTAR)
Volume of brick = length x width x height
= 190 x 90 x 90
= 1539000 mm3
PLASTER OR MORTAR USED = 10MM

Brick size in mm = 200 mm x 100 mm x 100 mm (WITH M0RTAR)

Volume of brick = length x width x height
= 200 x 100 x 100
= 2000000 mm3

10 MM = 1 CM

IN CENTIMETER (CM)
Brick size in cm = 19 cm x 9 cm x 9 cm (WITHOUT M0RTAR)
Volume of brick = length x width x height
= 19 x 9 x 9
= 1539 cm3
PLASTER OR MORTAR USED = 1cm

Brick size in cm = 20 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm (WITH M0RTAR)

Volume of brick = length x width x height
= 20 x 10 x 10
= 2000 cm3

1 METER = 100 CM

IN METER (M)
Brick size in M = 0.19 m x 0.09 m x 0.09 m (WITHOUT M0RTAR)
Volume of brick = length x width x height
= 0.19 x 0.09 x 0.09
= 0.001539 m3
PLASTER OR MORTAR USED = .01 M

Brick size in Meter = 0.20 m x 0.10 m x 0.10 m (WITH M0RTAR)

Volume of brick = length x width x height
= 20 x 10 x 10
= 0.002 m3
Volume of 1 m3
No. Of Bricks in 1 m3 = volume of 1 Brick With Mortar
 = 1/0.002
= 500 Bricks

CEMENT ESTIMATION
Volume covered by 500 No. Of Bricks in 1 m3
= No. Of Bricks in 1 m3 X Volume of 1 Brick without Mortar
= 500 X 0.001539
= 0.7695m3

Volume of mortar in 1m3 = 1 - 0.07695

= 0.2305 m3 ( wet volume)

For dry volume of mortar we increase 33% of wet volume

according to IS code
So Dry Volume = 0.2305 + (0.2305 X 33%)
= 0.2305 + 0.076065
= 0.306m3

Mortar Ratio = (1:6)

 = (Cement : Sand)

Quantity of Cement in 1m3

= ( Dry volume of Mortar X ratio of cement ) / Ratio of (cement + Sand)
= (0.306 X 1) / (1+6)
= 0.306 / 7
= 0.043m3
Density of Cement = 1440kg/m3

Quantity of Cement in kg = Quantity of Cement X Density of Cement

= 0.043 X 1440
= 62kg

1 cement Bag = 50kg

Total no. Of cement Bag in 1m3 = 62/50

= 1.24 Bags

Cost of 1 Cement bag = 300rs/bag

Cost of 1.24 bags = 300 x 1.24 = 372 rs

SAND ESTIMATION
Quantity of sand in 1 m3
= ( Dry Volume of Mortar X ratio of sand) / Ratio of (cement + Sand)
= (0.306 X 6) / (1+6)
= 1.836 / 7
= 0.262 m3

Density of Sand = 1450 to 1500 kg/m3

We are taking = 1450kg/m3

Quantity of sand in kg = 0.262 X Density of Sand

= 0.262 X 1450
= 379.9 kg

1 Truck sand = 6660kg

379.9 kg = (379.9 /6660) truck

= 0.0570 truck

1 truck sand cost = 10500 rs

379.9 kg sand cost = 0.0570 X 10500
= 598.50 rs

1 kg sand = 379.9/598.5
= 0.63 rs
