Abstract: At 7:15 a.m. on June 10, 1986, Employee #1 met with coworkers in the tool room on the third floor. At 7:30 a.m., Employee #1 and one of the carpenters that he was assisting went down the stairs to the second floor to install a wall. The carpenter told Employee #1 that they needed an extension cord. Employee #1 went back to the tool room, got an extension cord, plugged it in, and dropped it down to the carpenter.
