Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:30 a.m. on May 3, 1991, Employee #1 and two coworkers were installing a steel channel and beam in a brick wall. The beam was 31 = ft long by 18 in. thick, and weighed 1,800 lb. It hung by a chain about 8 ft from one end; the other end rested on the brick wall. As the crew tried to push, wiggle, and otherwise maneuver the beam into place with the aid of a forklift, a weld holding the chain in place broke, and the beam fell on Employee #1. He was transported to the hospital, where he died. The employer was cited for a serious violation of T8CCR 4999(b).
