A search of this website using the word "crane" should help you locate previous threads regarding the subject. It has been discussed a few times.

Hello ryantales, you can find examples of "lifting plans" at WSH-COUNSIL ( LiftingPlanGuidelines.pdf ).
I would also search at BECHTEL the Rigging Handbook ( Bechtel_Rigging_Handbook_2nd_edition_Part_1[1].pdf ). For the AutoCAD cranes files there are some here in the site ( CAD/BIM Blocks ), launch a search with the word crane. I have personally placed some AutoCAD files here and others are available eventually. For the lifting accessories you can find at THE CROSBY GROUP AutoCAD files and I have uploaded here in the site files regarding this compiling different files in one like for shackles, etc... If you want/can pay for it there are plan and elevation views for 65 dollars each in : www.tdkv.com. Some crane builders are giving their AutoCAD files like LIEBHERR, TADANO, and some are not but : MANITOWOC-GROVE is providing a very useful software : PADLOADS ( free and safe ) that will calculate the padloads that you need if you install your crane on bridges or other "light" areas. PADLOADS ( if you learn how to use it ) will validate your cranes configurations, etc... Ask for more if needed.

Hello Vini-SA, thanks for your thanks.
Do you have any complementary information about lifting, lifting plans, cranes, accessories, etc... ? I'm still in need for technical information and correct technical literature in English...

See if some of this helps Philippe; Just take the relevant code, punch it in your search engine and it should give you a pdf to download.
