«grue portique» : L'emploi de ce terme, heureusement rare, nous paraît impropre, car en français le terme «grue» ne s'applique qu'à des engins de levage pourvus d'une flèche. Il présente en outre un danger de confusion avec le terme «grue sur portique» (en anglais, «portal crane»). 1, record 2, French, - pont%20de%20levage
