Investigation Summary
On November 15, 2001, Employee #1 was walking within the swing radius of crawler crane. The crane had lifted a cement floor slab and begun swing the boom around to drop the slap on the pile. As he swung the boom towards the pile, the operator of the crane prematurely released the slab. The slab fell and tipped over, pinning Employee #1 to the ground. The weight of the slab prevented him from breathing. He died of asphyxia.
