As compared with structural engineering, building technique has been rather neglected in studies of the history of modern archiecture. Formerly Hermione Hobhouse offered her opinion that 'the period 1820 to 1850 was one of technical advance in the building industry' and she connected the rise of Victorian master builder with the gradual mechanization of the industry. Yet her opinion seems to have been disregarded in later writings. What is necessary now is the survey of realities. This series of papers attempts to throw light upon the technique of the mid-19th century with the relevant facts appeared in professional journals, technical literature, Parliamentary Papers and so on. The first of these surveys the course of invention and introduction of stone-working machinery.
