🔑 Key Features of Construction Project Schedule Calendar in Google Sheets

This ready-to-use calendar template in Google Sheets includes 5 worksheets designed specifically for construction project scheduling. The Home sheet acts as a navigation hub with 4 buttons linking directly to the Annual View, Monthly View, Daily View, and Events sheets. The Annual View displays all 12 months in a single view with customizable year, starting month, and starting day of the week — ideal for viewing the full construction project timeline at a glance.

The Monthly View shows a single calendar for any selected month and year, displaying 1 event per date with a “more than 1…” indicator when multiple events exist on the same day. The Daily View lists all events within a user-defined date range, with start and end dates selectable via a calendar picker. The Events sheet serves as the centralized database capturing 7 fields per event: ID (auto-generated), Date, Day, Event Name, Time, Location, and Description. This structure makes it easy for construction managers, contractors, and project coordinators to track inspections, milestones, deliveries, and site meetings in one organized template.
