Investigation Summary
Employees #1 and #2 were unloading a van of compressed form bars. They had unloaded two rear sections of the van and were in the process of deactivating the compression on section #1. They had removed all the shoring bars except for one bar that was stuck in the tracks approximately 5 ft off the floor of the van. The employees applied hydraulic pressure to the stabilizer, but without success in freeing the shoring bar. They then placed an approximately 2 ft by 8 ft piece of wood on the lower push bar ledge and again applied hydraulic pressure. The piece of wood gave way and the shoring bar spun out, striking both workers on the head. Employees #1 and #2 were killed.
