Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was installing backing in the high-ceilinged living room of a single-family home under construction. He erected a borrowed steel-framed tower scaffold, placing one plank on the top level to create a 10 ft 8 in. high platform. Employee #1 then placed a 5 ft fiberglass stepladder on the plank and leaned it against the wall. Employee #1 was climbing the ladder when the scaffold shifted and he and the ladder fell between 12 and 13 ft onto the concrete floor. He was knocked unconscious and sustained a concussion, facial lacerations, and a bruised right arm; he was hospitalized for two days. The accident was caused by the failure of the scaffold's plank and rail platform, and by leaning he ladder against the wall to climb it.
