Investigation Summary
At approximately 4:00 p.m. on November 14, 1989, Employee #1 was spreading rock on the bottom of 10.5-13 ft excavation. The shoring and bracing collapsed when the wall of the excavation caved in. Employee #1 was trapped under the shoring dirt and suffered a fractured pelvis and leg as well as internal injuries and was hospitalized. Inadequate strength of shoring and bracing and insufficient numbers of horizontal and vertically spaced braces were believed to be the causes of the accident.
