Investigation Summary
On September 13, 2011, Employee #1 and Coworker #1 were working as steelworkers. Employee #1 and Coworker #1 were setting a rack of steel joists (three joists welded together with bridging) on to two steel girders and two joists, located approximately 34 feet above the ground. Employee #1 was walking from the west girder to the south joist, and was tied off to the joist using a beamer and a six foot lanyard. Coworker #1 was operating a JLG boom lift and was raising the work platform to Employee #1, who was located in the middle of the joist. Coworker #1 contacted the joist with the boom lift, and displaced the joist rack. The joist rack tipped and flipped over and struck the concrete flooring below. Employee #1 fell with the joist, and hit the concrete flooring. Employee #1 suffered multiple unspecified serious injuries.
