In market, brick available size is 9 * 4 * 3.
i.e. 0.23mX0.1mX0.8m.
So, for brick masonry number of bricks required is 348 nos./1 CuM.

The correct answer is 550.

Because in question it is asked a number of bricks required.

550 with wastage is correct.

Muhammad Hashim said:   2 years ago
The number of bricks in 1Cum = 500 bricks.

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

In RS Khurmi it is given 550.

But here it is 500.

Which is the correct answer? Please tell me.

Yusuf ghadiyali said:   9 years ago
10% wastage is considered. So correct answer is 10% of 500 = 50.

So, total bricks are 550.

500 is right because motor is covered in 50 bricks of space.

Amar Mhetre said:   5 years ago
500 is the right answer.

Because of the standard condition.

@Raja said:   9 years ago
550 is given in Khurmi Gupta book.
