Made by a union worker, for union workers.
Everything you logged is kept and comes back the moment a key is activated. Week is the cheque calculator and hours log for the week you are on. Full adds the year log, the calendar, by-employer and by-month totals, and more than one employer. One key works on up to three phones.

Every day you logged is kept. A Full licence unlocks the year log, the calendar, the by-employer and by-month totals, and more than one employer. $9.99 a year, one key for up to three phones.

Log your hours day by day and see every cheque: straight time, time and a half, double time, vacation and holiday pay, dues, CPP, EI, an income-tax estimate and living-out allowance. The year view adds it all up. Pick your province and agreement on the Settings tab: Alberta Local 110 (all five segments of the CLR-A agreement and the NMA and GPMA maintenance agreements), BC and Yukon Local 118 (the BCICJV agreement and the CLR standard agreement), Saskatchewan Local 119, Manitoba Local 99, Ontario Local 95 (three ICI zones and three maintenance schedules), Quebec calorifugeurs under the CCQ sector agreements, and Nova Scotia Local 116 (mainland and Cape Breton) are built in, with each province's payroll tax. The week shown first is an example; change any box.
These come from the TD1 forms you filled in for this employer. Most people claim the basic amounts. Your pay stub may list them as "TD1 claim" or "claim code".
Pass it on. A mate points their phone camera at this code and taps the link that pops up. Or send them the link:
On the home screen it opens full screen, works without signal, and your log stays on the phone and is never uploaded.
Week licence $4.99 a year: the cheque calculator and hours log. Full licence $9.99 a year: everything, including the year log and extra employers. Your key is tied to your email address and works on up to three of your own phones.
Your log is saved on this phone or browser only. Copy a backup now and then and keep it in your notes or email it to yourself. Paste it back here to restore, or to move to a new phone.
A number that doesn't match your stub, a rule we got wrong, something you'd like added. Say which agreement and classification. Email is optional; leave it if you'd like a reply.
Trade info comes with either licence, along with the cheque calculator.
ASME B16.5 flanges. Stud lengths are the standard's: the raised face is 1/16" on Class 150 and 300 and 1/4" on Class 600 and up. The flat gasket is a ring gasket to ASME B16.21 (spiral wound gaskets are sized differently). The wrench is the heavy-hex nut across the flats. The drawing and the job's bolting procedure come first.
Flanges are two-holed: bolt 1 sits just clockwise of the top, level with the last bolt. Going clockwise from 1, mark the bolts in this order:
Then tighten in number order: 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on. Each odd and even pair sits straight across the flange. With two wrenches, do 1 and 2 together, then 3 and 4. Bring it up in passes; the job's procedure sets how many. This is the cross pattern in ASME PCC-1.
B7 studs (ASTM A193) with heavy-hex nuts, torqued to load the stud to half its yield strength, with C5A or a dope like it on the threads and nut faces (friction 0.10). B7 is rated lower above 4", so a 4 1/4" stud takes less torque than a 4". These are guidelines only: the manufacturer's spec or your engineering department comes first.
Enerpac RSL2 to RSL30 (hex or square drive; current model names in brackets) and S1500X to S11000X (square drive). HYTORC Stealth (hex) and Avanti, MXT and ICE (square drive). Type a torque to get the pump pressure, or a pressure to get the torque. Between the chart's rows it's worked out in a straight line. These are the makers' standard charts (Enerpac's instruction sheets, HYTORC's conversion charts); your wrench's own calibration certificate comes first.
Measure everything in the same units. L is one leg, from the hook to where it meets the load (for a basket, each side is a leg). The spread is straight across between the lifting points; the app works out the height and angle from it. Tension in each leg = load ÷ legs × L ÷ H (L ÷ H is the load angle factor). This assumes the hook is over the centre of gravity and the legs are the same length; an off-centre load puts more on the shorter, steeper legs. Only 2 legs are counted, even with 3 or 4 legs, because the load can end up on two of them; the number of legs only changes how the spread is measured (corner to corner on 4 legs). Each sling's tag rating for its hitch has to cover the tension in its leg.
Lift-All Permaloc single-leg slings: 6x19 or 6x37 IWRC, extra improved plow steel, mechanically spliced eyes, design factor 5 (ASME B30.9 ratings). Basket ratings need the load or pin to be at least 25 times the rope diameter; choker ratings need a choke angle of 120° or more. Never rig below 30° from horizontal. Fibre-core rope rates lower. The tag on the sling comes first.
A ply is a layer of webbing. 2-ply is the everyday sling; 1-ply is a lighter version rated about half, so check which you have: the tag says, and on many makers' part numbers EE1 means 1 ply and EE2 means 2 ply. Lift-All Webmaster 1600 nylon eye-and-eye slings (1,600 lb per inch per ply; polyester in this line rates the same). Basket at an angle is the basket rating times the sine of the angle, rounded down. Keep nylon away from acids and bleach, and don't use it above 90 °C (194 °F). Pad sharp edges. The tag on the sling comes first.
Everything below is for the employer picked on the Settings tab. Rates step on the agreement's own dates and the calculator uses the column in force for the week you're looking at. Hours are your hours on site, breaks included, the way the agreement's overtime rules count them.
Not included: New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island (we could not get a readable copy of their insulators' agreements), Newfoundland and Labrador (Local 137's agreement is a scan whose later steps are not printed); travel time, mileage and daily travel-expense zones as their own lines (type the week's travel money in the travel box, which is counted as tax-free), call-outs and show-up pay, Alberta's 12-hour turnaround shift paid as a flat 12 h, the temporary-foreign-worker and pensioner pension-as-wages schedules, probationary, provisional and asbestos-removal rates, firestop-improver rates outside Alberta and Saskatchewan commercial work (use Custom rate), Quebec's isolated-site (Annexe B-1) rates, the Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Nova Scotia maintenance agreements, the Alberta Better SuperVision premium ($0.75 an hour on Segments A to C, $0.50 on D and E), the Mortuary Plan assessment, and union dues a Local does not publish (enter them from your stub). Rules the calculator can only approximate are named in each agreement's notes. Employer health, pension and training contributions aren't on your cheque; the pension part is shown as a memo line under the cheque and on the Year tab.
Made by a union worker, for union workers. Independent tool. Not made by or affiliated with the International Association of Heat and Frost Insulators and Allied Workers, any of their locals or councils, any employer bargaining association or contractor group (CLR Alberta, CLR-BC, the BC Insulation Contractors Joint Venture, CLRS, CLRAM, the Master Insulators' Association of Ontario, the ACQ, NSCLRA and others), the CCQ, the National Maintenance Council or any contractor. This is an estimate, not payroll advice. Your stub and your steward have the final word.
Your hours, pay, employers and settings stay on this phone. There's no account and no sign-in, and we never see your log.
