Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:00 a.m. on February 14, 1997, Employee #1, of Harrington Construction, was framing a single-family house. He was using a crane to erect an 18 ft high, 2 by 6 stud wall. Employee #1 had stood up one wall and secured a second one when he began working from a ladder to guide the two wall sections into place. He was using the claws of his hammer to pull the sections together when the claws pulled out and he lost his balance. Employee #1 fell 13 ft to the ground, sustaining multiple fractures of his lower left leg, lower arm, wrist, and hip. He was taken by ambulance to Mercy Hospital in Folsom, CA.
