one.  At this
moment the scaffold platform came down in a free fall and the plasterers
inside theplatform died. The employer did not assure that the users
inspected and tested the
platform before each use as specified on ANSI A92-1993 paragraph 7.4.3.
Hazard: Scaffold failure, breaks or fell while employees were using it.
En el Proyecto de construccion Atlantis, en la parte posterior del
edificio habia un
andamio de mastil que era usado por albaniles para poder alcanzar la pared
exterior del
piso 18 donde los albaniles se encontraban empanetando.  La plataforma del
andamio de
mastil se encontraban a una altura aproximada de 150 pies cuando otro
empleado fue a
realizar trabajos de mantenimiento al andamio. El trabajo de mantenimiento
consistia en
cambiar una de las ruedas que mantenia la plataforma elevada. Los
albaniles se
mantuvieron trabajando mientras el mecanico se encontraba reparando el
andamio. El
andamio era marca Hek, Modelo MS Pro Max. El dia estaba lluvioso con
vientos fuertes
al momento que el mecanico saco la rueda para remplazarla por una nueva.
En ese
momento el andamio cayo en caida libre y los albaniles en la plataforma
murieron. El
patrono no se aseguro de que los usuarios inspeccionaran y probaran la
plataforma antes
de cada uso como se requiere en el ANSI A92-1993 parrafo 7.4.3.
Riesgo: Andamio falle, se rompa o caiga mientras empleados lo estubiesen
usando.sen
