Abstract

The invention relates to a turbine blade, including a blade having a front edge and a rear edge, which blade transitions by means of a shaft into a blade root designed for fastening the turbine blade, and including a platform, which is arranged at the lower end of the blade in order to bound a flow channel. The platform is designed as a separate component and can be connected to the blade in a form-fit manner. Flexible application is achieved in that the platform is composed of several individual platform elements, which enclose the blade in the assembled state.
