Investigation Summary
At 9:20 a.m. on January 18, 1996, Employees #1 and #2 were on a crew of nine workers that were raising a wood frame wall section into position on the second floor of a house under construction. As they manually raised the panel above their heads, the foreman realized it was too heavy for the men and ordered them to lower the panel back to the floor. Two coworkers, one at each end, apparently panicked and ran. The remaining men were unable to support the weight and the panel fell. Employees #1 and #2 sustained injuries that required hospitalization.
