While the employee was tramming an empty forklift he came in contact with the base of a I-beam support. The pier of the I-beam was constructed of several layers of mortared brick. The mast of the lift dislodged the upper layers of brick allowing the front left wheel to ride up onto the remaining brick support causing the forklift to tip over on its side.
