Schweizerische Bauzeitung
The Schweizerische Bauzeitung is a Zurich engineering and architecture periodical of 1883, published by H. Zürcher for the Swiss engineers' and architects' society and former students of the Zurich Polytechnic. Its pictures are technical line drawings: cross-sections of a furnace or kiln with brick masonry hatching, a long-section of a covered shed on stone footings, a scaled plan of a steel and iron casting bay, and a dense engraved view of a machine with gears and levers. A designer could draw on their clean hatching, labelled dimension lines and restrained black-and-white linework for technical diagrams.
