Equipment Malfunction
Even when all safety precautions are met, accidents can still occur. Construction equipment defects and malfunctions create a large possibility for accident and subsequent injury. Common malfunctions involve:
- Crane collapse: Cranes are tall machines used for transporting heavy objects.
- Scaffolding collapse: Scaffoldings are temporary structures used to create a surface for construction workers to stand on while working on the exterior of a building.
- Electrocution: Many power tools require electricity to function and can potentially malfunction. Additionally, installing electrical wiring in new buildings poses a risk of electrocution.
Accidents that occur on construction sites are sometimes life-threatening or fatal. Our Atlanta construction equipment defect attorneys strongly believe in fair compensation for victims of negligent actions that cause construction accidents.
