<h2 id="concreteblocksandbricksfaqs">Concrete blocks and bricks - FAQs</h2>
<h3 id="whatarestandardbrickdimensionsintheuk">What are standard brick dimensions in the UK?</h3>
<p>The standard brick size in the UK is 215 x 102.5 x 65 mm (8.46 x 4.04 x 2.56 inches in imperial). This is normally paired with a standard width of 10mm mortar joints. </p>
<h3 id="whatarethestandarddimensionsforaconcreteblockintheuk">What are the standard dimensions for a concrete block in the UK?</h3>
<p>Unlike bricks, which tend to follow a standard size (see above) concrete blocks come in a range of different dimensions. The most common size for a concrete block is 440 x 215 x 100mm. This is designed to complement brick dimensions, so is the same length as 2 bricks, and the same height of 3 bricks (including the 10mm mortar joints between them).</p>
<h3 id="howmanybricksdoineedperm2">How many bricks do I need per m2?</h3>
<p>If you’re using standard bricks, a rough guide is that you’ll need around 60 bricks per m2 for a single layer wall. If you’re working on a two-layer wall, you’ll need to double this: about 120 bricks per m2.</p>
<p>You can find a <a href="https://www.jewson.co.uk/material-calculators/brick">brick calculator online here</a>. </p>
<h3 id="whatspecialshapedbricksareavailableonbuildbuddy">What special shaped bricks are available on Buildbuddy?</h3>
<p>As well as bricks in non-standard dimensions, Buildbuddy lists a variety of special shaped bricks. These are designed for detailed and innovative brickwork that solves architectural and aesthetic problems. Examples include angled and cant bricks, as well as rounded bullnose bricks. </p>
