Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 170843973

Event: 07/11/2000

Employee's leg fractured in fall through wire rope midrail

Employee #1 was hoisting a welding lead up an elevator shaft at a hospital under construction. He was on his knees leaning over a wire rope midrail to pull up the lead from the first to the second floor. The weight of his upper body pressed against the wire rope rail, and he fell, fracturing both bones in his lower right leg. The perimeter wire rope ran through holes in angle iron posts and was secured back with cable clamps. The midrail at the south end was secured with only one cable clamp, which was not set tight enough to support Employee #1's weight.
