For this a thorough knowledge of scientific principles applied to building, ability and correct taste in design, and a technical knowledge of the various building trades, with skill in the use of tools, are necessary, and are prominent objects of the course of instruction. The course embraces the knowledge of theory and principles of construction details and of the ordinary routine work of office practice, so far as these can be tuught in a technical school. Tne technical instruction is given chiefly by lectures, with reference to text books, and is illustrated by sketches, engravings, photographs, and models; practical applicatioDS are immediately made by students.
