The invention relates to a device for compensating for the deformation of a supporting device (1) in certain areas under the action of its load (F). To this end, provision is made to provide the suspensions (5, 6) of the supporting device (1) with different rigidity in order to obtain a pivoting movement (V) of the supporting device under the action of the load (F). The pivoting movement (V) essentially compensates for the deformation in the desired area (4). The supporting device is preferably a C-hook (1). <IMAGE>
