Construction Project Log Book

Published by: BNI Building News ISBN: 1-55701-425-6 416 Pages, 7 x 9, Shipping Weight: 2.18 lbs.

Trying to keep track of all the small things that keep a construction company going can drive you to distraction -- especially if you keep everything in your head. With the project log book you can easily keep track of what happened each day on the job: the hours worked, the equipment rented, the material purchased, the craftsman on the job, the weather, accidents, and what actually got done.

Good records can save your profit margin, as well as help you determine how time is being spent, and most importantly, protect you from lawsuits.
