Abstract
An example turbine includes a turbine disk and a turbine blade. The turbine disk includes a plurality of lugs and a plurality of slots. Each of the plurality of lugs is located between two of the plurality of slots. Each of the plurality of lugs includes a tab that extends radially outwardly from an end of the lug. The tab has a first section having an upper surface and a second section having an upper surface. The upper surface of the first section is inclined greater than the upper surface of the second section, and the upper surface of the first section of the tab defines a contour. The turbine blade includes a root received in one of the plurality of slots and a platform, and the platform has a lower surface defining a contour. When the turbine blade is received in one of the plurality of slots, the lower surface of the platform is located above a portion of the upper surface of the first section of the tab, and the contour of the upper surface of the first section of the tab matches the contour of the lower surface of the platform.
