Best Answer

On a per-foot basis, it would be the thickness of the wall in feet multiplied by the height in feet multiplied by the combined density of the brick and mortar. My AISC manual has 120 lbs per cubic foot for a normal brick wall, so a typical single wythe wall (4" thick) would weigh 40 lbs square foot of face area.

It is not always mandatory that we will have a RCC bed below any brick wall. In ground floor without basement the brick wall stands on common concrete slab not RCC slab, in other floors slab has to be made of RCC, hence brick wall stands on RCC.


How do you deduct volume of steel in concrete?

If you know the dimensions of the slab, assuming that the slab is solid and in the shape of a rectangle, box, or square, you can calculate the volume with the formula: LxWxH which is length times width times height. This will give you the volume of the slab in cubic units (meters, feet, inches, whatever). Depending on the type of steel, you will have a different density ratio which can be used to calculate the weight of the slab. The density of low grade steel is something on the order of: 7850 kg/m3 so you would multiply your volume by the density ratio to get kilograms. If you know the weight of the slab and the type of steel, you can calculate the volume by dividing the weight by the density ratio. I hope this helps, perhaps you could provide more details on the type of steel and the exact property of the slab that you need (volume, weight, density.
