Abstract

Disclosed is a turboengine blading member, having at least one platform member and at least one airfoil member. A receiver through opening extends through the platform member. The connector post is received within the receiver through opening. Each of the connector post and the receiver through opening have a retainer flute provided on the circumferential wall and extending along at least a part of the circumferential extent. The retainer flutes are arranged juxtaposed each other with the open sides facing each other such as to jointly form a joint retainer cavity. First and second retainer members are bonded to each other to provide a common retainer member extending into both corresponding retainer flutes, thereby retaining the connector post within the receiver through opening and interlocking the airfoil member and the platform member.
