How to calculate the amount of Brick,cement & sand required for 1 cum of 230mm thick brick work..

Answer / zuber ahmed

Volume of Dry Mortar = 35% of volume of Brickwork

Volume of Mortar required = 0.35 + 1 = 1.35 cu.m.

Cement required = 1/6 X 1.35 = 0.225 cu.m. =6.8Bags

Sand required = 5/6 X 1.35 = 1.125 cu.m.

Bricks required = 500 Nos.
