The mass production of goods launched by the industrial revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries fuelled the development of larger and more specialised warehouses, usually located close to transport hubs on canals, at railways and portside. Specialisation of tasks is characteristic of the <a href="/wiki/Factory_system" title="Factory system">factory system</a>, which developed in British textile mills and potteries in the mid-late 1700s. Factory processes sped up work and deskilled labour, bringing new profits to capital investment. </p><p>Warehouses also fulfill a range of commercial functions besides simple storage, exemplified by <a href="/wiki/Manchester_cotton_warehouses" title="Manchester cotton warehouses">Manchester's cotton warehouses</a> and Australian wool stores: receiving, stockpiling and despatching goods; displaying goods for commercial buyers; packing, checking and labelling orders, and dispatching them. </p><p>The utilitarian architecture of warehouses responded fast to emerging technologies. Before and into the nineteenth century, the basic European warehouse was built of load-bearing masonry walls or heavy-framed timber with a suitable external cladding. Inside, heavy timber posts supported timber beams and joists for the upper levels, rarely more than four to five stories high. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:GlosDocks.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/91/GlosDocks.jpg/220px-GlosDocks.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/91/GlosDocks.jpg/330px-GlosDocks.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/91/GlosDocks.jpg/440px-GlosDocks.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2048" data-file-height="1536" /></a><figcaption>19th-century warehouses in <a href="/wiki/Gloucester" title="Gloucester">Gloucester</a> docks, in the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</a>, originally used to store imported corn</figcaption></figure> <p>A <a href="/wiki/Gable_roof" title="Gable roof">gabled roof</a> was conventional, with a gate in the gable facing the street, rail lines or port for a crane to hoist goods into the window-gates on each floor below. Convenient access for road transport was built-in via very large doors on the ground floor. If not in a separate building, office and display spaces were located on the ground or first floor. </p><p>Technological innovations of the early 19th century changed the shape of warehouses and the work performed inside them: cast iron columns and later, moulded steel posts; <a href="/wiki/Saw-tooth_roof" title="Saw-tooth roof">saw-tooth roofs</a>; and steam power.

As modern <a href="/wiki/Steel_frame" title="Steel frame">steel framing</a> developed in the late 19th century, its strength and constructibility enabled the first skyscrapers. Steel girders replaced timber beams, increasing the span of internal bays in the warehouse. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Saw-tooth_roof" title="Saw-tooth roof">saw-tooth roof</a> brought natural light to the top story of the warehouse.
