FAQ
What cranes are included in Crane Lift Planner?
Crane Lift Planner includes data for five common crane configurations: a 30-ton Rough Terrain, a 50-ton Rough Terrain, an 80-ton Rough Terrain, a 130-ton Rough Terrain, and a 200-ton Crawler. This allows for quick lookups of rated capacity at various operating radii.
How does Crane Lift Planner calculate critical lift status?
Crane Lift Planner compares the total rigged load against the crane's rated capacity at the specified radius. It then flags critical-lift thresholds with color-coded indicators: green for under 75%, yellow for 75-90%, orange for 90-100%, and red for over capacity.
Can I use Crane Lift Planner without an internet connection?
Yes, Crane Lift Planner is designed to work offline. This feature is crucial for use in remote sites, during yard moves, or refinery turnarounds where internet access may be unavailable.
Does Crane Lift Planner show its calculations?
Yes, unlike some free alternatives, Crane Lift Planner displays the math behind its results. Every calculation lists the specific chart entry used and the load ratio, providing transparency and avoiding a 'black box' approach.
What is the price of Crane Lift Planner?
Crane Lift Planner is available for a one-time purchase of $4.99. This grants lifetime access to the app on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, including support through Family Sharing.
How often is Crane Lift Planner updated?

Is Crane Lift Planner suitable for all crane operations?
Crane Lift Planner is a quick-reference tool intended for rapid capacity verification and critical-lift assessment. It is not a substitute for the official load charts provided by the crane manufacturer, a lift director's sign-off, or a site-specific ground bearing capacity assessment.
What is the age rating for Crane Lift Planner?
Crane Lift Planner has an age rating of 4+. This indicates it is suitable for users aged 4 and older, with no content concerns typically associated with more mature age ratings.
