Investigation Summary
At 10:35 a.m. on April 29, 2000, Employee #1, a journeyman iron worker for a structural subcontractor, was working with a welder and another iron worker at deck levels #390 and #400 of a parking structure. They were correcting the elevations of some of the beams when the welder sent Employee #1 to get a bolt. He was returning when he fell 25 ft through the metal decking, apparently because someone had cut the welds on the bolts securing the decking. Employee #1 was transported to Cedar-Sinai Hospital, where he was kept on life support until his death on approximately May 1, 2000. The welder later stated that he did not know who had cut the welds on the metal decking.
