Brick Reference Tables

The tables on this page are simply for reference. The first shows how the brick size varies the brick per square foot and the number of masonry bags needed for a job. The second table shows the ratios of bricks to sand and bricks to PROSOCO's SureKlean.

The table below is a tool for estimating the number of bricks needed for a job. For example, if you are using King Size brick on 1000 square feet, your calculation would be 1000 * 4.7 = 4700 bricks for the job. The number of masonry cement bags will then be 470/1000*6 = 2.82 bags.
