Bricks in 100 cft are 1350 no
Calculations are shown below
- Steps of Calculations
- As we know that
- 100 cft = 1350 no,s of bricks
- Volume of bricks 9″×4.5″×3″
- Let’s convert into the feet by dividing 12 inch
- 0.75*0.325*0.25
- So it equal to = 0.0703 cft volume of each bricks
- now we finding the volume of 100 cft without mortar
- 100/volume of each bricks
- 100/0.0703 =1422 .22 no of brick without mortar
- now we find the volume of mortar in 100 cft which is 10 % of mortar volume
- 10/100 *1422 = 142.40 no of bricks
- now remove the mortar volume from the total number of bricks
- 1440-142 = 1280 no of bricks
- now add the contingency rate which is 5 %
- 5/100 *1422 =71 No of bricks
- Now add Total number of bricks
- 1280+71 =1351 no of bricks
- so we say that 100 cft = 1350 no of bricks..
