## What goes in a construction daily report?

The date and who wrote it, the weather and whether it stopped work, who was on site by company and trade with their hours, the equipment and whether it ran or sat idle, the work done, any delays, deliveries and visitors. Write it the same day.

## Why record a day with no work?

A rain day or a weekend with nobody on site is still a day on the record. A series with no gaps is what makes the log believable later; a missing day is the one somebody asks about.

## What makes a weather day count?

Your contract. Many define an adverse weather day by a measurement, such as rain over a tenth of an inch or sustained wind over 25 mph, and expect the work it stopped to be named. Record the measurement and the activity that stopped, on the day.

## Why keep standby and idle time apart?

Labor on site that could not work, and equipment on site that could not run, are what a delay is priced from. Hours worked and hours standing by are different numbers, so the report keeps them in different columns.
