Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was sandblasting and painting the interior of a surge water tank from a single point suspension scaffold. The scaffold was suspended from a 5/16 in. wire rope that failed approximately 20 in. below its attachment point. Employee #1's fall was arrested by his fall protective equipment, and he sustained only a bruise on his arm. The wire rope used to suspend the scaffold was badly damaged, with numerous broken wires, worn and flattened strands, an area that was coiled, a kink with the core protruding, and a number of areas where the rope was bent. Despite its poor condition, the cable had not been removed from service.
