for 1 cub.m the total quantity of bricks is 500.
Brickwork Calculation & Formula

The size of the modular brick is 190 X 90 X 90 
Mortar Thickness is 10mm
Assume required brickwork volume is 1 cubic metre (m3)
Any brick walls consist of bricks and cement mortar.
So, first of all, we are going to find the volume of bricks with mortar thickness and then volume of bricks alone.
Volume of bricks with mortar
Volume of 1 brick with mortar = 200 X 100 X 100 ( 10 mm mortar thickness on all sides)
                                             = 0.2 X 0.1 X 0.1
Volume of brick with mortar = 0.002 Cum (m3)
Therefore, Number of bricks required for 1 cubic metre = 1/0.002 = 500 No.s
