Brick Calculator

Estimate whole bricks for a rectangular wall area.

About the Brick Calculator

This estimator divides wall face area by a brick-and-gap module area and rounds the quantity upward.

How to use it

  1. Enter wall dimensions in meters.
  2. Enter brick face dimensions and optional mortar gap in centimeters.
  3. Set a waste percentage and calculate.

Estimation formula

Wall area is divided by the face module formed by brick length plus gap and brick height plus gap. Results are rounded to whole bricks.

Example

A 5 m × 2.5 m wall with a 21.5 cm × 6.5 cm brick and 1 cm gap produces an approximate count before waste.

Notes

Openings, wall thickness, bond patterns, cuts, breakage, special units and structural requirements are not modeled.
