Investigation Summary
At 10:00 a.m. on October 8, 2019, Employee #1 was positioning and fastening bottom tails of attic trusses to the top plate of a framed wall. The wood trusses were rigged with a steel chain from a single point at the peak of the wood truss. A Terex 30-ton mobile hydraulic crane picked up and swung trusses onto the top plate of the framed wall. The crane swung the wood truss and struck the previously fastened truss on the roof. An employee on the ground was pulling on the tag line at the time of impact. The nail plate, which fastened the section where the steel chain wrapped around the truss, pulled out. The truss collapsed from the steel chain rigging and fell from the crane. Employee #1 was standing on the top plate when struck by the collapsing truss. Employee #1 subsequently fell from the top plate to the ground below. Employee #1 suffered fractured ribs, neck, and shoulder. Employee #1 also suffered head injuries, which resulted in a traumatic brain injury, which has affected his memory. Employee #1 was hospitalized.
