Investigation Summary
On June 19, 2001, Employee #1 fell more than 10 ft from the second-story floor to the concrete ground level, while framing the house. Employee #1 was handing a 2-in. by 8-in. by 20-in. rafter to his coworker who was located on the ceiling joist, right above him. Employee #1 lost grip of the rafter and fell with the rafter through the floor opening that was 6 ft 1 in. in length and 6 ft 9 in. in width. As Employee #1 fell through the floor opening, he first hit his head against the edge of the floor opening and then struck his head a second time against the concrete ground and subsequently died. At the time of the accident, there were no safety guardrails around the floor opening to prevent Employee #1 from falling through the second-story floor opening.
