Abstract

See full text

A method for aligning an inner shell of a turbine assembly with an outer shell of the turbine assembly along a transverse centerline of the turbine assembly perpendicular to an axial centerline of the turbine assembly includes positioning a first gib key assembly with respect to the transverse centerline. The first gib key assembly is connected to a first end surface of the inner shell to form a first groove within the first gib key assembly. A projection formed on a first end of the outer shell mateably engages the first groove formed within the first gib key assembly to align the inner shell with the outer shell along the transverse centerline.
