Bricks

Grades, sizes and the unit each material is priced in.

Overview

What this covers

Bricks are specified by type and size, and ordered by the thousand or by wall area. Different types vary considerably in size, so a piece count from one type does not transfer to another.

Applications

Typical uses

Walling and partitions
Boundary walls
Infill and blockwork alternatives
Where a specification or appearance calls for brick

Specification

What identifies the material

These are the details a quotation works from. The more you can give, the fewer questions come back.

Notes

Review material list

Piece counts do not transfer between brick types of different sizes. Availability varies by grade, size, thickness, length, brand, quantity and specification. Current status is confirmed at quotation.

Calculate

Work out the weight or quantity

The calculator prints the formula and the density it used, so the figure can be checked.

Theoretical calculated weight only. Calculator results are preliminary estimates for requirement and quotation preparation. They are derived from published geometry and a stated density, and actual weight varies within manufacturing tolerance. Final material specification and structural quantities must follow drawings, BOQ and engineer or project requirements.

Questions

Frequently asked

How many bricks per square metre?

It depends entirely on the brick size and the wall thickness. Tell us the type, the size and the wall area, and the quantity can be worked out against the actual dimensions rather than a general figure.
