Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was on the third floor of a building under construction. He was standing between two wall steels on 18 in. centers, trying to pry loose the bond beam with a claw hammer to make room for a metal vertical wall steel. While he was leaning over the edge of the stairwell and applying pressure to the hammer, the beam suddenly came loose and knocked Employee #1 off balance. He fell approximately 25 ft between the two vertical steels, landing in the basement. Employee #1 was hospitalized for treatment of a fractured wrist.
