Abstract
A shroud assembly includes a shroud segment and a hanger. In one exemplary aspect, the shroud segment has a shroud body extending substantially along a circumferential direction between a first end and a second end. The shroud body defines a radial centerline along the circumferential direction. A flange is attached to or integral with the shroud body. The flange is pivotally coupled with the hanger at a location spaced from the radial centerline of the shroud body.
