Investigation Summary
On May 30, 2007, an employee was working from a sixteen-foot two-section aluminum extension ladder patching stucco. The employee fell of the ladder because the catastrophic structural failure of the rails. The employee suffered a head concussion and laceration after falling 10-12 ft. The employee was treated and released from Kern Medical Center. The failure of the rails was determined to be the method of transporting the equipment. Ladders are transported on a flat truck secured by webbed belts that are tensioned by a ratchet type binder. Forces exerted on the rails, modified I-Beam configuration, were great enough to deform the rails, causing cracks, so as to result in structural defect and failure.
