Abstract
A turbine shroud for incorporation in a turbine of a gas turbine engine has a plurality of butted shroud segments circumferentially arrayed to form a ring. Each of the shroud segments has an arcuate main shroud body portion, a radially inward extending annular flange attached to a first end of the main body portion, and a radially outward extending flange with a plurality of mounting apertures attached to a second end of the main shroud body portion. A first mounting aperture is sized smaller than an adjacent second mounting aperture in the radially outward extending flange.
