tronçon de flèche

This is in a list of actions to take in a court expert proceeding. I understand that the topic is a crane that failed, earlier they use the terms mast and jib (mât and jib), but suddenly there's a flèche that has never been used in the docs before. Here's the phrase
Mesurer les longueurs des tronçons encore dans les tronçons de flèche
The tronçons are tronçons [de câble]
Mesurer les longueurs des tronçons encore dans les tronçons de flèche
The tronçons are tronçons [de câble]

jib section
To me it sounds like "measuring the length of the sections of cable remaining inside the jib sections"
Did the cable itself snap?

As Tony says, flèche is usually used for the jib

Note from asker:
| Yes, the cable snapped. Why do you think the fleche is the jib and not the mast? |

English Abstract
A longitudinally divisible crane boom segment includes a
plurality of sections that are easily transportable. The sections each include
at least one chord member, and a plurality of partial lacing elements. Each
partial lacing element has a first end permanently attached to the at least
one chord member and a second end connectable to one or more
corresponding ends of plurality of partial lacing elements attached to a
chord member of another section. Preferably the partial lacing elements
are connected by dovetail connectors.
French Abstract
Cette invention concerne un tronçon de flèche de grue formé de sections séparables longitudinalement et faciles à transporter. Chaque section comprend au moins un longeron et une pluralité d'éléments partiels de triangulation. Chacun des éléments partiels de triangulation ci-dessus est solidaire par un de ses bouts du longeron susmentionné, son autre bout étant raccordable à un ou plusieurs éléments partiels de triangulation solidaires du longeron d'une autre section. De préférence, le raccordement des éléments partiel de triangulation s'assemblent au moyen de connecteurs à queue d'aronde.
