Investigation Summary
On October 10, 2007, Employee #1 and a coworker, both field engineers, were shooting benchmark lines on the tenth floor for a pour-in-place concrete building. Shooting benchmark lines involves one person who uses a sight level gauge and a second who marks the appropriate area with a pencil to indicate consistent elevation. Employee #1 was walking backward and taking instructions from the coworker with the sight level gauge when he fell from off the side of the building to the ground. Employee #1 was killed.
