The Department of Buildings said that the cross-bracing on the scaffold was inadequate.
The scaffold collapsed from the 18th to the 17th floor after a load of material was placed on it.
None of the workers were seriously injured, and all four were taken to the hospital.

DOB inspectors ordered the contractor to repair the scaffolding and issued a violation for failure to safeguard workers.
A partial stop work order was also issued.
