Brick Calculator – Procalculator

🧱 Brick Calculator estimate bricks, wastage & cost

inputs: wall type, dimensions, brick size, mortar, wastage and pricing. Live updates, PDF export, chart & derivation.

🏗️ Wall type

Choose single or double wall (double = double area of bricks).

📏 Wall length (L)

📐 Wall height (H)

📏 Wall area

Input area directly (override length × height)

🔧 Brick details

📏 Brick length (l)

📐 Brick height (h)

🧱 Brick width (w) (optional)

Width is not used for 2D brick count but useful for mortar volume later.

🪨 Mortar joint thickness (t)

Typical mortar thickness: 5–12 mm (0.005–0.012 m).

⚠️ Wastage (%)

🏷️ Price per brick

Computed wall area—

Bricks needed (no wastage)—

Wastage (%)—

Total bricks to order—

Cost of bricks—

Values update automatically as you type.

📚 References & notes

Item	Notes
Formula	`bricks = (L × H) / ((l + t) × (h + t))`
Wastage	Multiply bricks by (1 + wastage/100) to get order quantity.
Units	All length units supported: mm, cm, m, in, ft, yd. Area uses derived units (e.g., m² or ft²).
