Investigation Summary

The first truss was braced in one spot, and the 2-in.-by-4-in. braces snapped causing a domino effect on the other trusses. Employee #1 was thrown off the truss, and a coworker working under him partially caught him breaking his fall. Employee #1 suffered bruises and abrasions but was not hospitalized.
