The Plib SSG function:

  ssgEntity *ssgLoad( const char *fname, const ssgLoaderOptions *options = NULL
) ;

does load one of the supported 3D file formats choosing the actual loading
function by filename extension (e.g. ssgload3DS) - you can add the resulting
ssgEntity to some branch node of the scene graph (ssgRoot, ssgTransform, etc),
e.g.:

ssgRoot *scene = new ssgRoot();
scene->addKid( ssgLoad( "your3Dfilename.3ds" ) );

Hope this is an answer to your question.
