Daily Site Report: [Project name], YYYY-MM-DD
A one-day record of a construction site: weather, labour and plant on
site, work done against the programme, deliveries, visitors,
inspections, health and safety events, delays and instructions
received. Based on common construction practice. Daily records are
often the main evidence when a delay, change or claim is assessed
later, so complete it the same day. Replace every [bracketed] value
and every row marked Example.
