Investigation Summary
On December 12, 2002, Employee #1, a pile driver, was struck by a 13-foot, 6-inch long piece of 12W 63 steel pile that he was burning off of pile Number 35 in a pile driving pit. He had two coworkers assist him by holding the steel pile as he was burning it. When the burning was completed, he stood approximately 5 feet off to the side, so his coworkers could push the pile over. When his coworkers pushed the pile over, the cut portion of the pile hit the top of an already driven pile (pile Number 34), and bounced off the top of it, and rolled onto Employee #1's left foot, severely lacerating the big toe and lead toe of his left foot. He was hospitalized and had his big toe amputated at the first joint, and his lead toe amputated at the second joint.
