Enter the brick length (in), the brick width (in), and the brick thickness (in) into the Brick Weight Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Brick Weight. 

Brick Weight Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Brick Weight. 

BW = BL * W *  BT * 0.0694

Variables:

  • BW is the Brick Weight (lbs)
  • BL is the brick length (in) 
  • W is the brick width (in) 
  • BT is the brick thickness (in) 

How to Calculate Brick Weight?

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Brick Weight.

Example Problem #1

  1. First, determine the brick length (in).
    • The brick length (in) is calculated to be : 10.
  2. Next, determine the brick width (in).
    • The brick width (in) is measured to be: 5.
  3. Next, determine the brick thickness (in).
    • The brick thickness (in) is found to be: 3.
  4. Finally, calculate the Brick Weight using the formula above: 

BW = BL * W *  BT * 0.0694

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

BW = 10 * 5 *  3 * 0.0694 = 10.41 (lbs)


Example Problem #2

The variables required for this problem are provided below:

brick length (in) = 12

brick width (in) = 6

brick thickness (in) = 4

Test your knowledge and check your answer with the calculator.

BW = BL * W *  BT * 0.0694 = (lbs)
