Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:30 p.m., on August 7, 2012, Employee #1, a yard worker of The Crane Guys, LLC, was injured by a falling trench plate, weighing an estimated 2,500 to 3,000 pounds. Employee #1 sustained two fractured femurs. Employee #1 sustained the injuries at the rear of the crane yard where he was painting trench plates. Employee #1 propped up trench plates with various objects found in the yard so that he could paint them without turning them over. Employee #1 used a forklift to prop up the trench plates onto a post, a metal bin and also using a 4 by 6 wooden block found in the crane yard. As Employee #1 was moving away from the trench plate, placed at an angle above the 4 by 6 wooden block, the unstable arrangement failed and he was struck in the upper legs by the falling trench plate, which knocked him down, pinning him under the heavy steel plate.
