Brick Calculator
A brick calculator estimates how many bricks are required to build a project. The project can also be a house or any choice of clients regarding construction. When they start construction work, most people carried extra material and worried about extra material and expenses. To avoid this tension we designed this calculator. This calculator may be overcome at extra expense.

Brick Calculator Example
A brick calculator is used to calculate how many bricks are required to cover a wall. For example, we are building a house so we need a brick calculator for a wall. With the help of it, we find an estimated figure for the required bricks. We can use this calculator for others like the patio, safe walls and plating.
Brick Calculator Working
Users need to provide parameter height, length, mixture layer size horizontally and vertically, and brick price. Users need to provide height, length, and mixture size in inches. Following steps, we perform to calculate the no of brick as well as price.
Step 1: Find the total row?
To find the total row we need height and the brick’s height
Total Row = Height” / Brick’s Height”
(‘) represent feet
(“) represent inches
Total Row: This row is not an actual row because a mixture (mortar) is applied to each row so it will cover some space. That space will be caused to reduce the number of rows.
Step 2: Find total space covered by mortarTo find the total space covered by mortar we need to mortar size and total rows.
Total space covered by mortar (horizontally)” = Total Rows * Mortar size horizontally”
Step 3: Find how many rows are applied in the space covered by mortar.To find the total row in space covered by mortar, we need the total space covered by mortar and brick’s height.
Total Row in Covered by Mortar = Total Space Covered by mortar (Horizontally)” / Brick’s height”
Step 4: Find the actual rowTo find the actual row we need to subtract the total row and the total row is covered by mortar
Actual Row = Total Row – Total Row in Covered Mortar
Step 5: Find a number of bricks in a row.To find a number of bricks in a row we need the length and the brick’s length.
Total no of brick in row = length” / brick’s length”
Similarly, as the above total row in step 1 is not an actual row same total no of bricks in a row is not actually because the mixture layer is applied between each brick, so that mixture will cover some space that will be caused to reduce the number of bricks in row.
To find the total space covered by the mixture (vertically) we need to mixture size vertical and the total number of bricks in a row.
Total Space Covered by mortar (vertically)” = Total no of bricks in a row * Mortar Size Vertically”
Step 7: Find no bricks in the covered spaceTo find a number of bricks in the covered space we need the total space covered by mixture and length of brick.
Total No of Bricks Covered in Mortar = Total Space Covered by Mortar (vertically)/Brick’s Length
Step 8: Find the actual no of brick in the rowTo find an actual number of bricks in a row we need to subtract the total number of bricks in a row and the total number of bricks covered in the mixture (vertically).
Actual No of Bricks in Row = Total no of bricks in a row – Total no of bricks covered in a mixture
Step 9: Find the total no of bricks.The total no of bricks is a product of the actual row and the actual no of bricks in a row.
Total no of Bricks = Actual Row * Actual no of bricks in row
The total no of bricks will be for the double layer because Brick Dimension (height: 3”, length: 4.5”, width: 9”) and we take length 4.5 to calculate the of bricks in a row then wall size will be be be 9”. When we use length 9” then the total no of bricks will be for a single layer or a single layer we just take half of the total no of bricks.
For a single layer, we just take half of the total number of bricks.
Total No of Brick (Single Layer) = Total No of Bricks / 2;
Step 11: Calculate PriceTo calculate the total bricks price we need to per brick price and the total no of brick (single | double) layer.
Total Price = Total No of Brick (Single | Double) layer * per brick price
