The same call at every site, made from rules your company wrote.
Every 30 minutes AllClear checks each site's conditions against your own limits and gives every scheduled operation a go, a caution or a no-go. The same rules in Manhattan and in Denver, whoever is on shift.
It starts with your rules, and every number says where it came from.
A limit is more than a number. It names what is measured, where, and for which piece of work: gusts at the jib for this crane, heat index for this crew, concrete temperature at discharge for this pour.
Each one is marked as a regulation, a manufacturer's figure or your own company policy, with the person who approved it and the date it took effect. Change a rule and the old version stays attached to every decision made under it.
| Condition | Warning | Critical | Where the number comes from |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wind gustat the jib, 3-second gust | 18 mph | 25 mph | Company policyApex safety manual, section 7.2 |
| Wind speedsustained, 10-minute mean | 15 mph | 20 mph | Company policyApex safety manual, section 7.2 |
| Thunder heardreported by a person on site | None | Stand down, return 30 min after the last thunder | Published guidance, adoptedOSHA and NOAA Fact Sheet 3863 |
Need a starting point? The library holds published limits only.
AllClear never invents a safety threshold and never recommends one. Every library entry carries its issuing body, document, section, jurisdiction and date, and nothing applies until a named person at your company adopts it.
Oregon OSHA published this rest-break table. Whether it becomes your rule is your decision.
| Heat index | Rest break |
|---|---|
| ≥ 90 °F | 10 minutes every two hours |
| ≥ 95 °F | 20 minutes every hour |
| ≥ 100 °F | 30 minutes every hour |
| ≥ 105 °F | 40 minutes every hour |

Checked every 30 minutes. Old data is never a go.
Live and forecast conditions come from Tomorrow.io, history from Open-Meteo. We name them because we resell forecasts and will not pretend otherwise.
When a feed goes quiet the site does not stay green. It turns unknown, says how old the last reading is, and tells the people responsible.
Crane Operations
AllClear cannot make this call.
The last weather reading for this site is from 3:31 AM, four hours ago. No comparison against Apex's rules is shown until fresh data arrives.
A call for each operation, not one light for the whole site.
At 8:11 the lightning stand-down ends and most of the site goes back to work. The crane pick does not: gusts are still 31 against a limit of 25.
One site, three answers, because a rule belongs to a piece of work. Each operation carries your own schedule's activity ID, which is what lets the record name the work a lost day hit.
Lightning stand-down over. 30 minutes since the last thunder.

The crew hears it without installing anything.
A text and a link. No app, no account, no licence, however many subcontractors rotate through the gate. A reply of OK is kept against the decision it answers.
If a superintendent overrides a call, AllClear keeps who did it and why, in their own words. It never pretends the override did not happen, and it never pretends that being seen means work stopped.

See tomorrow morning on one of your own sites.
Bring one site and the rules you already work to. In twenty minutes you will see its call, the text your crew would get, and the record it leaves behind.
