Investigation Summary
On July 26, 2003, Employees #1 and #2 were erecting structural steel and metal decking for a breezeway at an elementary school. A bundle of metal decking 10 ft 9 in. long, weighing approximately 840 lbs, was being hoisted by a truck-mounted crane onto the structure. Employees #1 and #2 were both on 8-ft stepladders set up on opposite sides of the breezeway. The load was rigged with a single nylon strap choker positioned in the middle of the bundle. A tag line was on the load but apparently was not being used. After it was hoisted above the structure and above both employees, Employee #1 reached up and pushed one end of the bundle to rotate the load for correct positioning. The load shifted, struck the steel, and fell out of the rigging, striking Employee #2 in his foot. Employee #1 tried to hold the bundle up, but it fell onto him, causing an amputation.
