Investigation Summary
Workers were attaching a prefabricated EFIS (exterior finish insulation system) panel to a building structure. The panel measured approximately 40 ft long by 15 ft wide by 3 ft thick, and weighed approximately 8,000 lb. The wire rope clips attached to the custom-designed hoisting slings failed, and the EFIS panel fell 32 stories (470 ft) to the ground, striking and killing Employee #1.
