Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:00 p.m., on April 4, 2011, a crew of eleven employees was working on an agricultural building. The crew was installing open-faced, 81-foot long span trusses with a truck mounted crane. Nine employees were installing bracing on the top and bottom truss chords at various heights of 20 to 28 feet. The crane operator finished setting a truss and released it from the crane. The operator then rotated the crane to pick up another truss member. There was a loud snapping sound, and the previously positioned truss buckled and collapsed to the ground. Employee #1 fell to the ground and was killed by head injuries received by landing on his head on the fallen truss. Employee #2 fell from the truss and suffered a broken leg. Three other employees received slight bruising from falling from the trusses.
