Lessons Learned – Building M6-794 Roofing Type A Mishap
Year: 2009
Abstract: Abstract:
On March 17, 2006, a construction worker fell from the roof of Supply Warehouse #1 (Building M6-794) at the Kennedy Space Center. Rescue personnel arrived at the mishap scene minutes later, and the worker was subsequently airlifted to the hospital but passed away later that day due to fatal head injuries. At the time of the mishap, the workers were installing a corrugated metal roofing panel as part of Subcontract X04524-6 and the employee was working close to the edge of a roof without proper full protection.
Because of this fatality, many recommendations were made to prevent a mishap such as this from occurring again. These recommendations include: requiring physical restraints when working close to edge of a roof, reserving non-physical restraint systems for special circumstances requiring approval through formal variance.
