Investigation Summary
Employee #1 and a coworker were using a Link Belt LS-78 crawler crane, serial #7D986, that was on a barge to demolish a pier. The boom was at an extreme angle that gave it only 5 ft of clearance above the barge and pilings when it fell and pinned him against the pilings. Employee #1 was killed. Apparently, there had been a mechanical problem with the sheave and guide bar at the top of the boom, although the coworker said it had been corrected. The boom was neither blocked nor cribbed when Employee #1 positioned himself underneath it.
