Rigging Calculator: Crane Lift

Rated capacity at your operating radius, from the manufacturer's own main-boom load chart — for riggers, operators, and lift directors who need a quick check on the iron.

WHAT IT DOES
Pick your crane and boom length, enter load, rigging weight, and radius. The app reads the manufacturer's chart row at or above your radius (never interpolated), compares total rigged load against it, and flags the lift: under 75%, 75–90%, 90–100%, or over capacity. A radius beyond the chart is refused, not guessed.

Every chart is transcribed from the manufacturer's published product guide for main boom, fully extended outriggers, 360° rotation, and the counterweight named on that chart. Charts that list several telescope modes for one boom length keep the manufacturer's columns; match the LMI code shown in the cab. Each chart cites its source document, page, and retrieval date inside the app.

REFERENCE ONLY
This app is a lookup aid. The manufacturer's load chart in the cab governs, and 29 CFR 1926.1417(o) requires it to be available on the crane. It does not account for boom or jib deductions, out-of-level, wind, dynamic loading, or ground bearing. The lift director's sign-off is not replaced by anything on a phone.

Not affiliated with any crane manufacturer. Model names identify which published chart is being displayed.
