According to a report from the Center for Construction Research and Training, during the time period of 1992 to 2006, there were 323 fatalities of construction workers due to crane accidents in the United States. In 2009 alone, there were 197 deaths.

Crane accident statistics are getting worse, not better. The construction industry, one of the biggest users of cranes, is one that is absolutely driven by deadlines. When projects fall behind, supervisors and workers begin to take risks they would not ordinarily take.

Unfortunately, when these risks involve the use of cranes, the resulting crane accident can create more than a missed deadline. It can become fatal to workers and bystanders alike.

Examples of Crane Accidents

  • Electrocution caused by the crane coming into contact with overhead power lines.
  • Crane collapse. This could be the result of an unstable or icy foundation the equipment was resting on or overloading.
  • Falling or swinging booms or jibs. A crane accident can mean injury or death for not just the operators of the crane, but also other area workers and even innocent bystanders. This type of incident creates major difficulty for an individual or family.
