Abstract: At about 9:44 a.m. on November 21, 2011, Employee #1 (with a general contractor) and a coworker (operator and lead mechanic), were using a crane (P & H, 15 ton capacity) to dismantle the boom of another crane (Petybone, 100 ton capacity). Employee #1 was removing bolts that held a section of the boom (about 22 ft long and weighing about 600 lbs). As he removed the last of 12 bolts, the section swung and struck him. Employee #1 was hospitalized for serious injuries to his head, neck, and back.
