HOW TO ESTIMATE NUMBER OF BLOCKS FOR YOUR BUILDING PROJECT IN 2 SIMPLE STEPS.
What is the number of blocks required to complete this building❓This is a common question asked by home owners especially after the making house plan.It is advised you use trusted professionals for your building project. This saves you time and money. However, if you are taking charge of material procurement or just wish to confirm number of blocks required for your project, these 2 simple steps you need to take. A simple 1 bedroom apartment is used in this case for clarity.
These are the two basic steps: Step 1: Calculate wall areas. Step 2: Divide total wall area by area of one block.
📝 STEP 1

To calculate wall areas, we will calculate the total length of walls and multiply by wall height

Area=Length x Height

Calculate Length: Looking at picture 1,we take length of vertical walls first(from left to right), then horizontal walls(from top to bottom)

Wall 1= 8000mm , Wall2=7755mm, Wall 3=3675mm, Wall 4=4100mm, Wall 5=3900mm, Wall 6=7950mm

Wall 7=3525mm, Wall 8=5975mm, Wall 9=5600mm, Wall 10=4425mm, Wall 11=4200mm

Sum of all wall length is=59,105mm.

Use height of wall at 3000mm.

Rough wall area (Wall area including openings) =59105mmx3000mm= 177,315,000mm

We have some wall openings at the entrance, doors and windows. We have to subtract areas for these to get the actual wall area:

We have 6 doors with measuring 900mmx2100mm: 6x900mmx2100mm= 11,340,000mm*2

We have 8 windows measuring 1200mmx1200mm: 8x1200mmx1200mm= 11,520,000mm2

We have 1 window measuring 600mmx600mm: 1x600mmx600mm= 360,000mm2

We have 1 opening measuring 3300mmx2100mm: 1x3300mmx2100mm= 6,930,000mm2

Add up all opening areas:
Opening area: (11,340,000+11,520,000+360,000+6,930,000) mm2= 30,150,000mm2

Subtract opening area from the rough wall area:

Actual ground floor wall area:(177,315,000-30,150,000) mm2= 147,165,000mm2

Area of foundation walls:

Also,remember we have a foundation. The foundation area depends on the number of courses laid. For this building, we use four courses of block wall as foundation (Strip foundation). This is roughly 900mm high.

We simply multiply the perimeter of walls we got in step 1 by the height of the foundation wall. Area is still length x height. But now the height is 900mm.

Area of foundation wall: 59105mmx900mm=53,194,500mm2

Total wall area = Ground floor wall area+Foundation wall area

=147,165,000mm2+53,194,500 mm2= 200,359,500 mm2

📝STEP 2:

Area of one block is 225mmx450mm= 101,250mm2

Number of blocks is total wall area divided by area of one block:

Hence, number of blocks is:200,359,500/101,250= 1978.86 blocks

That’s approximately1,980 blocks. You may want to add a certain percentage for breakages and off-cuts. If you use good quality vibrated blocks you only need to add a little.

HOLLOW BLOCKS 🆚 BRICKS

Are you still doubting either use traditional bricks or concrete hollow blocks for building your dream house🤔? KHAMOLGA CONSTRUCTIONS AND GENERAL SUPPLIES will help you to make the right choice!
Here are some of the top advantages of using the concrete hollow block in construction.

🏠Highly durable

One of the major advantages of concrete hollow blocks is their high durability. Concrete hollow blocks are compacted by high pressure and vibration, which make the blocks very strong and able to withstand a high level of loading. They also have high fire resistance and no salinity which reduces their maintenance cost.

💰Cost-effective

One concrete hollow block replaces five traditional bricks, and thereby reduces the construction cost. It also decreases the cost of the structural design of the building due to its light weight, which shrinks the size of structural members of both the foundation and superstructure. Hollow block construction also requires less mortar and saves labor hours, reducing both mortar and labor costs.

⏳Speedy construction

Concrete hollow blocks are easy to install due to their uniform size and shape. They also have less weight which facilitates rapid construction work.

🌍Environment-friendly

Concrete hollow blocks are very environment-friendly. Unlike traditional brick manufacture, which releases harmful fumes, hollow blocks are machine-made, thus saving our environment. These are also energy efficient building materials because of their insulating properties, thereby reducing energy consumption, and helping to build a green city for the future generations.

✅Greater natural disasters resistance
Another major advantage of concrete hollow blocks is that they offer superior natural disasters resistance. This is owing to their light weight, which reduces the building load significantly. This provides a stable foundation and makes it resilient to natural hazards like earthquakes floods etc. Their uniformity also reduces vulnerability during natural disasters giving you a safe haven.

🔇Comfortable interiors

A building made of concrete hollow blocks provides comfortable interiors due to thermal insulation. The air in the hollow block does not allow outside heat or cold in the building, keeping your home cool in hot days and warm when its cold. Hollow blocks also make the building soundproof or at least keep the noise at bay due to the hollow nature of the block.
