Masonry estimating tool

Brick wall calculator with staggered bond drawing

Enter the brick size, wall length, wall height, and mortar joint thickness to estimate how many bricks you need. The tool also draws the wall in intercalated courses so you can see the bond pattern and cuts.

Intercalated bond logic

Each course is staggered by half a brick so the wall preview follows a stretcher-bond layout instead of a simple grid.

Mortar joint aware

The calculator includes the cement joint thickness horizontally and vertically, so your count is based on the real module size.

Drawing plus count

You get whole-brick equivalents, an order quantity, and a live wall drawing that shows full, half, and cut bricks.

Estimate brick counts, cuts, courses, and order quantity

This tool is built for straight brick walls in stretcher bond. It accounts for the mortar joint between courses and between bricks, then converts the layout into whole-brick equivalents you can actually order.
