Investigation Summary
On August 22, 1998, Employee #1 was assigned to remove the tin roof from a peanut elevator. Employee #1 and two coworkers had removed approximately three-quarters of the roof prior to the accident. Employee #1 had used a screw gun to remove the screws from a row of tin and then moved out of the way to allow his two co-workers to remove the tin. One employee was standing on the lip of the bin and the other employee was standing on top of the U-shaped conveyor belt. None of the employees were provided with any type of fall protection. Employee #1 moved approximately 10-ft-to-20-ft away when the tin bent and collapsed under his weight. Employee #1 fell approximately 31 ft, striking the conveyor belt, a 1-in. steel hydraulic line, and the peanut bin, before landing on the ground. Employee #1 was killed in the fall.
