FAQ
Why is it free?
It is the trial. Same build quality, same Start here sheet and sample data as the paid templates, so you can judge the rest before paying for anything. It is the same file that ships in the bundle, not a cut-down version.
Is a site diary a legal requirement?
Contracts and some licences expect records of site activity and delay. Check your contract and state; this is a template, not legal advice.
Phone or tablet?
The workbook works in the Google Sheets app; the Word page prints.
Can I add fields?
Yes. The Daily log and the Word form are open to edit; the summary sheets are protected without a password (Review > Unprotect Sheet).
