Crane Turning path

[LilyCh]

Hi, does any one know to draw mobile crane turning path without using AutoTurn. The crane model is liebherr LTM 1250-5.1.
Thank you

Not sure if you (or your company) has a AutoCAD (Autodesk) subscription or not but there is a vehicle tracking add-on that's part of some of the collections

From 30 years back... you can use the same approach...

This probably the same info that CarlB shared but page 3 has a nice little picture of the crane showing all the radi and their locations on the crane.

Not sure if it's a one-off for you to figure out the turning path, but we used to do it the way dik recommended until it got very tedious with all the facilities we design so we invested in the vehicle tracking swept path software.
