🧠 How It Works – Step by Step
1️⃣ Add Wall Details
- Select wall type (Brick or Block)
- Enter Length, Height, and Thickness
- Specify Mortar Joint Thickness
- Enter Opening Area (in square meters)
- Add Waste % to account for site loss
📌 The calculator validates inputs automatically. Invalid or impossible data? That row gets highlighted and skipped.
2️⃣ Click “Calculate Walls”
Behind the scenes, the tool uses the formula:
Wall Volume = (Length × Height – Openings) × Thickness
Then it calculates:
- 🔢 Total units required (bricks/blocks)
- 📦 Mortar volume as proportion of unit volume with joints
- 📐 Accurate estimates even with mixed material walls
3️⃣ Generate Professional Report
Click “📝 Generate Report” to instantly open a printable, shareable report with:
- 📌 KPI cards for:
- Total bricks
- Total blocks
- Total mortar (m³)
- Total wall volume (m³)
- 📋 Table with each wall’s inputs and outputs
