Investigation Summary
On October, 15, 2008, workers were moving materials and equipment from one area of the work site to another. Prior to the accident, two six-ft-long wire chokers were placed on a 10-ft-long I-beam. Attached to the I-beam was an air-tugger located on the center of the beam. The chokers were attached to the excavator's bucket hook. During the transfer, the air-tugger shifted to the right side of the I-beam, causing one of the chokers to slip out of the hook. The hook was not equipped with a safety latch, and the beam struck a worker. The worker was hospitalized with several cracked ribs and a bruised hip.
