Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.251(a)(3): Rigging equipment, when not in use, shall be removed from the immediate work area so as not to present a hazard to employees. a. Located at the site, there were employees hoisting a 60 foot, 3 inch I-beam by use of a 60 ton lattice boom crawler crane with a 7/8" bridle sling that had an additional sling in the crane's hook that was not being used for hoisting which reduced the available space in the hook and increased the likelihood of tip loading, thereby exposing the employees to a struck-by hazard.
