Investigation Summary
On November 20, 2007, Employee #1 was part of a crew dismantling an old bridge. They had attached slings to a bridge beam and were cutting the bridge beam loose. The slings were not centered on the beam and when the beam was cut through and released, it swung inward toward Employee #1. He moved to get out of the way and fell approximately 25 ft to the ground, landing alongside the concrete bridge pier. Employee #1 sustained serious injuries, for which he was hospitalized. He was wearing fall protection equipment, but was not tied off.
