Concept:

Size of a modular brick = 190 × 90 × 90 mm3

Mortar thickness = 10 mm

Size of brick with mortar:

Length ⇒ 0.19 + 0.01 = 0.20,

Width ⇒ 0.09 + 0.01 = 0.1, and

Height ⇒ 0.09 + 0.01 = 0.1

Calculation:

Given,

The volume of brick masonry = 1 m3

Volume of brick with mortar = 0.2 × 0.1 × 0.1 = 0.002 m3

Number of bricks in 1 m= 1/0.002 = 500 Nos.
