Investigation Summary
On July 15, 1991, Employee #1, a carpenter with 6 years of experience, was helping to take a measurement. This required that he climb the lattice of the wooden forms being used to construct an approximately 28 ft high retaining wall. He reached a height of 20 to 25 ft using a lattice bolt that he had helped to build. At the appropriate height, he tied his safety belt to a 2 by 6 horizontal member and leaned away from the structure to take a measurement. As he did so, the board to which he was tied came loose and he fell to the ground. Employee #1 suffered multiple fractures of his right lower leg and a dislocated shoulder.
