Wet process Mixing of Raw materials in wash mill with 35 to 50% water. Materials exiting the mill are called

Assuming:- Volume of brickwork = 1m³ Size of brick—>19x9x9 cm Thickness of mortar = 10mm (1cm) Quantity of Bricks:- No.

Quantity of Mortar:- Volume of mortar= 1 m³ Mix Ratio –> 1:4 Dry volume of mortar = Wet volume x

Quantity of Mortar:- Volume of mortar= 1 m³ Mix Ratio –>1:6 Dry volume of mortar = Wet volume x 1.33

Quantity of Mortar:- Volume of mortar= 1 m³ Mix Ratio –> 1:6 Dry volume of mortar = Wet volume x

Since quantity of bricks depends upon Size of bricks, Thickness of wall & Thickness of mortar, I’m considering 2 cases
