Investigation Summary
Employee #1, the site superintendent, fell through a metal deck roof which another employee was in the process of cutting. The employee, who had cut the opening, momentarily stepped away from the area after making two perpendicular cuts. When Employee #1 stepped in the area, the deck opened up like a trap door because there was a seam in the deck in the middle of the two perpendicular cuts. Employee #1 fell 22 ft onto a concrete floor and was killed.
