Investigation Summary
Shortly before 2:00 a.m. on September 10, 2001, Employee #1 and Employee #2 were assisting with the construction of a pedestrian overpass across the Florida Turnpike. A concrete beam was being positioned by two cranes, American Crane Model Numbers 9310 and 9299, in a tandem lift. Employee #1 and Employee #2 were in a Genie S-40 aerial lift assisting with the correct placement of the beam. While in the process of lowering the beam, the cable from the crane 9299 snapped, causing the beam to fall on Employee #1 and Employee #2, killing them.
