What is the factor for determining the quantity of a standard 8 CMU per SF of wall?

The quantity of standard 8-inch concrete masonry units (CMUs) per square foot of wall is typically determined by the dimensions of the CMU itself, which is 8 inches high and 16 inches long. To calculate the number of CMUs per square foot, you can divide the area of 1 square foot (144 square inches) by the area of one CMU (128 square inches). This results in approximately 1.125 CMUs per square foot, meaning about 1 to 1.25 CMUs are needed for each square foot of wall, depending on the specific layout and any additional considerations like mortar joints.
