General-duty citation text

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The
employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were
free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death
or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to:
a) Wooden roof trusses that had been installed at the single family home
under construction at La Casta Estates, Summerfield, Florida on
11/10/89 had not been adequately braced, relative to size, type and
location of braces, to prevent their collapse, thus exposing
employees to the hazard of falling to the ground or floor from an
elevation of 12 feet or more and/or being struck by falling trusses,
and materials.
One feasible and acceptable method of abatement among others, would be
intallation of the trusses in accordance with the recommendations of
the Truss Plate Institute contained in BWT-76, Bracing Wood Trusses.
This condition is alleged to have happened on November 10, 1989.
