Field notes

The toolbox groups calculators by trade and includes a search field and a favorites-only option. The job-profit worksheet separates labor, materials, other direct costs, and allocated overhead before showing estimated profit, margin, and break-even price. Several tools include scope limits: the duct calculator is not a Manual J load or duct design, and the pipe and gas tools do not certify code-compliant sizing.
