Several 2-story single family homes were under construction at the site. Kaufman & Broad was the prime developer and Rancho Framing was the framing sub-contractor. The wood frame wall was being erected by 6 to 10 employees, including Employee #1. The approximately 400 lb wall skidded off the slab after the pivot point moved, falling onto Employee #1's back and bruising him. No one was seriously hurt.
