18 wall with 24 boxes of bricks18m. This paper will introduce the method of bricklaying and the size of bricks to help readers better understand the structure of brick walls.

Size of standard brick

The standard brick is 0.24m long, 0.012m wide, 0.06mm thick and mortar joint10mm.

Brick wall thickness

The thickness of a brick wall is usually called the multiple of the brick. Because the length of a brick is 240mm, a brick-thick wall is also called "24" wall, a half-brick-thick wall is also called "37" wall, and a half-brick-thick wall is also called "12" wall.

Brick wall laying method
