Investigation Summary
After cutting the wire rope chokers loose from the structural steel beam that was landed on wooden dunnage, the crane operator was given the signal to raise the hook with the wire chokers under the beam. As they were raised, the choker caught the beam flange, causing it to tip onto Employee #1 who was standing between the two beams. Employee #1 sustained contusions to his leg.
