Wall thickness ≤ one brick thick	It is measured in Square meter with stating thickness separately.
One brick thick < Wall thickness ≤ 3 brick thick	Multiples of half brick; Where fractions of half-brick occurs, it measures as follow: Up to ¼th brick - actual measurement Exceeding ¼th brick- full half-brick.
Wall thickness > three bricks	Actual thickness shall be measured.
