Investigation Summary
At 7:45 p.m. on April 18, 1989, two employees were moving a 23 ft 6 in. by 11 ft platform to another area to be painted. Employee #1, the crane operator, set the platform on two boards and leaned the platform against two A-frames. He then unhooked the slings from the crane. But the platform began to slide out at the bottom and the two wheeled A-frames rolled out of the way. Employee #1 fell, striking his head against a metal sawhorse. He died of head injuries. Employee #1 should have secured the load before releasing it from the crane. Two previously hoisted platforms had been secured to A-frames with C-clamps.
