Employees working on, near, and underneath the truss systems were injured as a result of the structural collapse of the roof structure during truss setting operations.  Abatement Note: Among other methods, feasible and acceptable methods to correct this hazard are to ensure that all work is conducted in accordance with design criteria established by the Truss Plate Institute - ANSI/TPI 1-2014 and to refer to the Building Component Safety Information ("BCSI") manual for wood truss temporary bracing requirements.
