Death highlights danger of 'have a go' construction

摘要

A worker died when a one-tonne pre-cast concrete panel, which he was trying to manoeuvre to help build a farm shed, toppled over and crushed him.rnThe worker was helping a colleague build a perimeter wall at an open hay shed by using a telescopic handler, when the accident occurred on 3 June 2008. They attached slings to the panel via the bolts and hooks provided, and hooked the slings over the forks of the telescopic handler.
