1m ^ 3/0.2m * 0.1m * 0.1m = 500 bricks.

The number of bricks in 1Cum = 500 bricks.

But the bricks required (10 percent wastage includes) = 550.

As we know that;

1) 1 m3 = 35.32cft.
2) 1 cft = 13.5 brick.
3) 35.32×13.5 = 476 bricks.
4) 5% wastage of 476 bricks.
5) 476 × .05= 23.8 bricks.
6) 476 + 23.8 =499.8.

So, 500 is the correct answer.

Size of actual brick dimensions of 190 mm * 90 mm * 90 mm.
The volume of 1 brick with mortar = 198 * 198 * 98 ( 8 mm mortar thickness on all sides)
= 0.198 m * 0.098 m * 0.098 m.

The volume of a brick with mortar = 0.0019 Cum (m3)
Therefore, the number of bricks required for 1 Cum (m3) = 1/0.002 = 526 Nos.
So, 500 is the correct answer if we ignore mortar.

500 is the right answer.

Because of the standard condition.

@All.

500 Nos of Bricks is the correct answer and in my observations, it also includes the 5% wastage as well.

So 1 cubic meter Quantity of Wall Contains 500 Nos Of Bricks.
