Let us consider 9" thick brick wall masonry as shown in the drawing for calculation purposes.
Given data:
Length of the brick wall = 16ft.
Height of the brick wall = 10ft.
The thickness of the brick wall = 9" = 0.75ft.
The total volume of the brick wall masonry
= length × height × thickness
= 16ft. × 10ft. × 0.75ft.
= 120 cu ft.
The total area of brick wall
= length × height
=16ft. × 10ft.
= 160 sq ft.
A. Material calculation:
Read the article " Brick, cement, & sand calculations for brick wall masonry." before proceeding further.
No. of bricks required/ cu ft. of wall = 12.36 nos.
No. of Cement bags required/ cu ft of wall = 0.0353 bags
The volume of sand required/ cu ft. of wall = 0.2593 cu ft.
Note: The quantity of bricks, cement & sand per cu ft. is taken from the above-mentioned article.
1. No. of bricks required
= [vol. of brick wall × bricks/ cu ft.]
= [120 cu ft. × 12.36 nos.]
= 1483.20nos.
2. No. of cement bags required
= [vol. of brick wall × cement / cu ft.]
= [120 cu ft. × 0.0353bags]
= 4.236 bags
3. The volume of sand required
= [vol. of brick wall × sand/ cu ft.]
= [120 cu ft. × 0.2593 cu ft.]
= 31.116 cu ft.

B. Labor calculation:
The labor rate per sq ft. of brick masonry ranges from INR 12/- to 20/- depending upon the region.
Let us consider an average rate of INR 16/- per sq ft.
The total cost of labor for 9" brick masonry
= total area of brick masonry in sq ft. × labor rate/ sq ft.
= 160 sq ft. × 16/-
= INR 2,560/-
Now, let us calculate the total cost of brick masonry in table format.

Note: To get accurate results, insert your regional market rate of materials & labor, in the above table.
The cost of double ( 9" ) brick wall masonry/sq ft.
= [total brick masonry cost ÷ total brick wall area]
= 19,141.85 ÷ 160
= INR 119.64 /sq ft.
The cost of double ( 9" ) brick wall masonry/cu ft.
= [total brick masonry cost ÷ total vol. of the brick wall]
= 19,141.85 ÷ 120
= INR 159.52 /cu ft.
