The invention relates to a construction crane (1) that is portable and movable when loaded, referred to as the crane (1), comprising a
chassis (2, 3) on which four wheels (230, 240, 330, 340) are mounted, at least two of which are pivotable, a mast (4) whose base is pivotably mounted on the
chassis, the mast being pivotable, in a median
longitudinal plane of the crane, about a
transverse axis, a boom (6) attached to the head of the mast, the boom being pivotable, relative to the head of the mast, about a
transverse axis, and slidable, on the head of the mast along a sliding axis included in the median
longitudinal plane of the crane, and which can be adjusted by pivoting the boom. The boom is suitable for receiving a gripping means (7) for gripping a load to be moved (16), or force transmission means (8) intended to support, at least in part, a load to be moved and / or a lifting means (9) for lifting the load to be moved. The crane comprises an
actuator (10) arranged to pivot the mast so as to support a distal end of the boom in a cantilevered manner with respect to the
chassis, a base of the
actuator being pivotably mounted on the chassis so as to pivot about a
transverse axis distinct from the transverse axis about which the mast is pivotable, a head of the
actuator being pivotably mounted so as to pivot about a transverse axis on an upper quarter of the mast located on the same side of the mast as the head, the actuator being pivotable, relative to the mast and the chassis, in the median
longitudinal plane of the crane.
