Abstract
An airfoil and shroud assembly includes an airfoil including a root end, a free end and a tenon extending from the free end, the tenon including a base and an externally threaded stud extending from the base. A shroud includes an opening configured to receive the base of the tenon. A nut is configured to be threadably coupled to the externally threaded stud on the tenon on the airfoil to couple the shroud to the airfoil.
