Masonry Core Grout Bag calculator.
Convert measured rectangular block-core voids scheduled for filling into grout bags. Enter net void dimensions and deduct known displaced volume; no filling or reinforcement schedule is chosen.

Formula and assumptions
How this calculation works.
Convert measured rectangular block-core voids scheduled for filling into grout bags. Enter net void dimensions and deduct known displaced volume; no filling or reinforcement schedule is chosen. V = Σ[(core width × core depth × filled height × cores per unit × units − known displacement)]; bags = ceil(V × allowance / mixed bag yield).
A worked example
Illustrative inputs only. Product properties and design dimensions are not recommendations for your project.
- Selected mixed grout yield per bag
- 10 L/bag
- Your material allowance
- 0 %
- Clear core width
- 0.1 m
- Clear core depth
- 0.1 m
- Filled height per unit
- 0.2 m
- Filled cores per unit
- 2
- Scheduled units
- 20
- Total known displacement in this group
- 0.01 m³
Mixed grout bags: 7 bags
Clear rectangular void dimensions only. Bond beams and irregular cores require separately measured volume; no grout or reinforcement schedule is selected.
Before you purchase
Use dimensions from your plan and properties from your chosen product. Any design spacing, section or fixing pattern must already be specified.
Counts quantities from an existing supplied specification. Does not design construction, certify safety, recommend application requirements or establish code compliance.
Example dimensions and product properties are illustrative arithmetic inputs only. Obtain actual yield, density and coverage from your selected supplier.
