Sole calculation

Circle diameter (in m)

Number of oven floor tiles

Ex: Diameter 0.90 m = 10.8 bricks 30 x 30 x 5 cm

Calculation for the oven dome:

Dome calculation

Oven floor diameter (in m)

Number of oven fire bricks

Ex: Diameter 0.90 m = 99 bricks 5 x 10.5 x 22 cm

Calculation of the number of oven floor tiles

We take into consideration :

  • The inside diameter of the oven

  • The size of the oven floor tiles (30 x 30 x 5 cm)

  • The lack of joint between the bricks

Calculation of the number of bricks for the dome

We take into consideration :

  • The inside diameter of the oven

  • The size of the oven fire bricks (5 x 10,5 x 22 cm)

  • The 1 cm wide joint between each brick

  • This result corresponds to a 10,5 cm dome thickness (bricks installation in width)

For a 22 cm dome thickness, multiply this result by 2 (bricks installation in length - see the video)
