How Much Brickwork Can Be Done in a Day?

The answer to this question varies depending on the type of brick used. A brick worker lays between 500 to 600 bricks a day. When you divide these numbers by the number of bricks per square meter given below, you can find out how many square meters of brick walls a brick wall worker can build per day.

For example, a worker can build 600/60 = 10 square meters (m2) of wall per day with 8.5 cm vertical bricks.

Since the number of briquettes that brickworkers can lay per day is also between 500 to 600, you can also calculate how many square meters of briquette walls a bricklayer can build per day based on the number of briquettes per square meter.
