how do we find the nos of bricks in 1 m3 brick masonary

Answer Posted / mohsin uddin jafri

Since we have 2 Standard size's of Bricks i.e,
i) 19x9x9 (in cm) &
ii) 20x10x10 (in cm)
For both these sizes of bricks we go for 10mm thick mortar
joint for all faces of the brick so the size of brick
changes to 21x11x11 and 20x10x10 respectively.
Now to calculate number of bricks in 1 Cu.M.
i) for 19x9x9: =(1 in Cu.M)/((0.20x0.10x0.10) in Cu.M)

=(1)/(0.002)
=500 Bricks.

I used Etabs software to analyse a high-rise building. And I want to use templated UBC-codes inside to calculate the Seismic load. My question is: whether or not I have to control the seismic load by base shear load which is manual calculation? (just for more clarification: I can control this by input the scale factor into Eartquake definition in Etabs) I would highly appreciate your answer.
