Technical Notes

Width refers to mortar bedding surface (rockface may overhang approx. 20mm)

290mm course height ≈ 5 ashlar courses per m² (including 10mm joints)

240mm course height ≈ 6 ashlar courses per m² (including 10mm joints)

All square metre calculations include standard 10mm mortar joints

Decorative moulds are supplied per linear metre (refer mould section)

Frogged ashlar options available for 5mm joint finish

Mount Gambier Limestone blocks

Standard Ashlar Sizes

Bruhn limestone blocks are cut to consistent face dimensions to ensure clean masonry alignment and uniform visual rhythm across wall systems.

  • Face Dimensions: 660mm (L) × 240mm or 290mm (H)
  • Available Depths: 100mm, 120mm, 150mm, 200mm, 240mm

These modular formats allow flexibility in structural design while maintaining consistent external proportions.

Weight & Handling

A standard 290 × 660 × 100mm block weighs approximately 18kg, providing an efficient balance between structural mass and on-site handling for bricklayers and stonemasons.

Limestone Veneer Cladding

For framed construction systems, Bruhn also supplies Mount Gambier limestone veneer cladding in 35mm and 50mm thicknesses.

This allows architects and builders to achieve the visual integrity of solid stone while working within timber or steel frame structures.
