Schweizerische Bauzeitung
A Swiss engineering and architecture periodical, the Schweizerische Bauzeitung, published in Zürich in 1883 by H. Zürcher for the Swiss engineers' and architects' society and former students of the Zürich Polytechnic. Its pictures are technical drawings: a building longitudinal section marked at 1:400, machine and pump plans, floor plans of an office building, and a foundry advertisement of cast steel parts. A designer could draw on their precise line work, dense hatching, and plan-and-section layouts.
