Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001A Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.451(c)(1): Supported scaffolds with a height to base width (including outrigger supports, if used) ratio of more than four to one (4:1) were not restrained from tipping by guying, tying, bracing, or equivalent means, as set forth in subparagraphs (i) - (iii) of this paragraph. a) At a home residence located at 404 Old Post Road in Marlboro, NY, on or about August 15, 2018, the employer did not restrain the fabricated frame scaffolding from tipping by guying, tying, bracing or equivalent means. An employee was performing the removal of a large piece of concrete from the top of a chimney and the scaffold was not restrained from tipping by installing guys, ties, and braces. The fabricated frame scaffold was five (5) feet in width so the height to base ratio was greater than 6:1 approximately thirty (30) feet in height and fell over when the employee tried to hoist down a large piece of concrete that was covering the top of the chimney.
