What is the concrete block?
Concrete block is the concrete materials used in buildings for construction. concrete block is the standard size. basically two methods for calculating the blocks in the wall.How To Calculate The Block Quantity In Wall
By Volume MethodÂ
By Area Method
1-Voulme Method
In this method, we will calculate the number of blocks with the volume of the wall and the volume of the block. we calculate the number of blocks with the help of the given data
Given Data
length of the wall=10ft
Height of the wall=10ft
The thickness of the wall= 8inch =0.67ft  (8-inch thickness because the thickness of the block is also 8inch)
The volume of the wall=L x H x THK
The volume of the wall= 10 x 10 x 0.67 =67ft³
The volume of the block
length of the block=16 inch
Height of the block=8inch
The thickness of the block=8inch
The volume of the block= L x H x Thk
The volume of the block = 16 x 8 x 8 =0.59ft³  Without motor
The motor is left side and the top side is equal to =1inch
The volume of the block with motor =(16+1) x (8+1) x 8 = 0.70ft³Â
Now the volume of the windowÂ
Length of the window = 3ft
Height of the window = 3ft
The thickness of the window =0.67ft
The volume of the window =L x H x Thk
The volume of the window = 3 x 3 x 0.67 =6.03ft³
The total volume of the wall for calculation block  = Volume of the wall – The volume of the window
The total volume of the wall for the calculation block  = 67 – 6.02 =60.98ft³Â
NOWÂ
Quantity of the block = Total volume of the wall ÷ volume of the block
Quantity of the block = 60.98 / 0.70Â =87.11=88 Numbers
Also, consider the 5 % waste Quantity
Total Quantity of the block = 88/ 100 x 5 =4.35
Total Quantity of the block = 88+4.35=92.35=93 Numbers
By Area Method
Area of the wallÂ
length of the wall=10ft
Height of the wall=10ft
Area of the wall =L x H
Area of the wall 10 x 10 =100 ft²
Area of the Block without motor
length of the block=16 inch
Height of the block=8inch
Area of the Block =16 x 8 =128inch²
Area of the block with motor
length of the block=16 inch
Height of the block=8inch
Allowance motor Thickness = 1 inch
Area of the block with motor= 16+1 x 8+1 =153inch²=153/12×12= 1.062ft²
Area of the window
Length of the window = 3ft
Height of the window = 3ft
Area of the Window = L x H
Area of the Window = 3 x 3 =9ft²
Total Area of the wall for calculationÂ
Total Area of the wall for calculation = Area of the wall – Area of the window
Total Area of the wall for calculation = 100 – 6 =94 ft²
Quantity of the blockÂ
Quantity of the block = Total Area of the wall ÷ Area of the block
Quantity of the block = 94 / 1.062
Quantity of the block = 88.51 =89 Numbers
