In 1895 he was elected an Associate of the Queensland Institute of Architects, and thereafter commenced his own practice in Rockhampton from where he made his design mark throughout Central Queensland.[2] In addition to his responsibility for the main school building of the Rockhampton Girls Grammar School, Hockings was architect for the two major additions to it undertaken in 1897 and 1899, as well as a long serving member of the Board of Trustees (1908–1926), serving as Board Chairman in 1911 and from 1917–19.[3] Hockings enlisted and served during the Boer War, where he commanded Squadron of the Third Queensland Contingent and was wounded.[2] He and re-enlisted and served during the First World War.[4] Hockings formed a partnership with Alfred Mowbray Hutton from 1898 until 1904 (Hutton and Hockings, Architects and Building Surveyors). From 1913 to 1916, he accepted Beatrice May Hutton as his articled pupil. She would become the first female architect to be admitted to the Queensland Institute of Architects and also the first in Australia.[5] He formed another partnership with Leslie Tarween Palmer from 1916 until 1938 (Hockings and Palmer). From 1939 to 1940, Hockings went on to form a final partnership with his son, Thomas Hocking (E.M. and T. Hockings/Hockings and Son).
