There was a time when people bred like rabbits and just crammed the new child into what space they had rather than expected to be given a new and bigger house paid for by someone else. You would find mum dad and 4 or 5 kids all living in a room with shared facilities or even two families sharing a room. Gross eh?? But - we moved on from those times because the kids brought up in such conditions wanted better and worked for it to ensure they could get out of such a bad 'lifestyle'. Today everything is there on a plate with no accountability or sense of responsibility. Maybe if we just told these sorts that they would have to fester at the level they were living in or work to get out of it and better themselves things would improve. Yes I know and agree it is not the kid's fault it has been born to feckless, useless parents but it is not everyone elses fault either except for the fact that the parents have been encouraged by the benefit system amongst other things to breed as freely as they choose. At some point some very hard stands are going to have to be made and there will be a generation which will suffer badly. It has to be done though. Under 18s who have babies out of wedlock should be the responsibility of their own parents not the rest of us. Those who have no job or means of supporting themselves should not be allowed to have children as by being unable to support themselves they obviously cannot support any children. Forced abortion - shock horror!?! Forced contraception methods - shock horror!?! Forced adoption - shock horror!?! I don't know the answer but I do believe at some point we will all have one of those shock horror moments when somebody somewhere has the guts to actually address this issue. There can be no easy answer.

more or less, 15,000 to 20,000 bricks probably in that range, .
Its somewhat consistently pretty much in that range or very close to that range. The exact amount really depends on several factors such as any of the following:
Size of the brick, and so, the quantity of bricks per square foot,
How many and size of windows, doors, patio doors, garage doors
Alternative-material panels: Some houses have bricks all around, others have panels of stucco (for style, or where bricks aren't supported underneath), and some houses have panels of stone, or whole front of the house in stone.
configuration of walls, whether the house is simple four-side "box" or if the walls have a lot of ins and outs, like bay windows, porch, portico, turrets, appendage - garages, chimneys, fireplaces, etc...

My parents have got a 5 bedroom house, but they don't keep any bricks in it at all. My dad keeps his bricks in his shed!
Does that answer your question?

The standard brick size is 225x112.5x75mm...so just work out the area of brick on the external envelope of the house and multiply, simple as that.

so many wise answers , my friend there is 110 brick in every square meter of the external walls thus being double (9'') and the walls inside the house deviding your rooms is single so they only have 55 per square meter , take rough measurements of the walls inside the house and work it out and then the same for the walls facing the outside (external ) and work it out , good luck.

there are so many variables that go into this answer: one story or two story, 8 ft walls or 9 ft walls, what is the sq ft of house, using standard or oversized brick? I'm a masonry contractor!!

the inner wall is probably block work so your house is 40 ring block and 120 brick. Wait till the plumber gets ya!!

Calculate total area of all surfaces to be bricked.
( total surface - windows and doors) = total area X 6.25 = average # of bricks.
the average brick requires 6.25 in total per square foot covered...
