Narrative

A non-injury roof fall that measured 8' long, 10' wide and 6 to 14' high. The fall was isolated to the #8 entry at the active pillar line. The release of supported roof was due to an overlying undetected separation above the anchorage of the primary support installed. The separation would not have been possible to detect while drill on advance.
