Investigation Summary
Employee #1, a steel erection worker, was straddling an I-beam, working approximately 51 feet above the surface. He was using the pointed end of a spud wrench to align the bolt holes of two beams. Employee #1 was wearing a full body harness, a tether line, and a .63-in. steel safety line. The safety line and tether were not attached to a tie off point or to the beam, therefore Employee #1 was not tied off. While he was aligning the bolt holes Employee #1 dropped his spud wrench. He then used a sleeving bar to finish the alignment work. The bar slipped out of the bolt hole as the he placed pressure on the bar. When the bar slipped, Employee #1 lost his balance, fell, and was killed.
