Limestone has been used in construction for over 4,000 years, with notable examples including the Egyptian pyramids and Roman architecture. In Australia, limestone cladding gained prominence in the 19th century with South Australian and Western Australian limestone being extensively used in heritage buildings. The introduction of modern cutting and surface treatment technologies in the late 20th century enabled precise dimensional tolerances and diverse finishes. The tumbled finish technique, popularised in the 1990s, provides a weathered aesthetic while maintaining structural integrity. Current Australian standards AS 4456 series (2003) provide comprehensive testing methods ensuring quality and performance for modern applications.
