Employee struck in head by snapping cable

At about 11:45 a.m. on January 4, 1994, Employee #1, of Spancrete of California, was constructing a concrete panel that was reinforced by prestressed 3/8 in. steel cables. The fifth cable from the left snapped while he was working on it with a strand vise and hit him on the left ear and the left side of the head.

Another employee, also in the vicinity at the time of the accident, participated in inspection during investigations and described the accident in the same fashion as his employer.
