Of course it depends on the size of the brick. But you can still do it by the following steps.

1. Let y = square inches of one brick (compute length X width).

2. # bricks = 144 / y ( the number of square inches in a sq. foot divided by size of a single brick)

For example suppose a brick is 2 by 8, then y = 16. 144/16 = 9 so you'd have 9 bricks in a square foot. If you think about it, lay the 9 bricks side by side they'd cover an area that is 18 x 8 =144, the same number of inches in a 12 in x 12 in area.

If you are going to use mortar between the bricks, remember to allow for that in your computation of the brick size..

How many bricks for 64 square feet?

To determine how many bricks are needed for a 64 square foot area, first, you need to know the size of the bricks. For example, standard bricks are typically about 7.5 inches long and 3.5 inches wide, which equals approximately 0.11 square feet per brick. Therefore, you would need about 580 bricks to cover 64 square feet, assuming no waste or spacing. Always consider purchasing extra bricks for cuts and mistakes.


How many bricks required for 700 square feet?

To determine the number of bricks required for a 700 square foot area, you'll need to consider the size of the bricks and the thickness of the mortar joint. A standard brick size is approximately 7.5 inches long, 3.5 inches wide, and 2.25 inches tall. Assuming a typical coverage of about 7 bricks per square foot (including mortar), you would need approximately 4,900 bricks for a 700 square foot area. However, it's advisable to account for waste and breakage, so ordering an additional 10% is recommended.

How many square feets are in 175 bricks?

The number of square feet covered by 175 bricks depends on the size of the bricks. For example, if standard bricks measure 7.5 inches by 3.5 inches, each brick covers approximately 0.146 square feet. Therefore, 175 bricks would cover about 25.55 square feet (175 bricks x 0.146 square feet per brick). If using different brick sizes, the total area would vary accordingly.

How many regular bricks per sq ft?

There are exactly 6.75 bricks per square foot. Standard modular brick courses 3 bricks per 8" vertically, and 8" per brick horizontally. Therefore, 1 square foot is 1.5 bricks wide x 4.5 bricks high, or 6.75 bricks per square foot. Keep in mind, there are MANY different brick sizes, but this calculation holds true for standard 'modular' brick.


How many jumbo bricks are in a square foot?

A standard jumbo brick typically measures about 3.5 inches by 7.5 inches. To calculate the number of jumbo bricks in a square foot (12 inches by 12 inches), you can first find the area of one jumbo brick, which is approximately 0.18 square feet. Dividing the area of one square foot by the area of a jumbo brick reveals that there are about 5 to 6 jumbo bricks in a square foot, depending on the exact dimensions of the bricks.
