Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a retention assembly for a stationary gas turbine component. A first stationary gas turbine wall defines a first wall cavity and a second stationary gas turbine wall constructed from a ceramic matrix composite defines a second wall cavity. A pin shaft constructed from a first material includes a first shaft end and a second shaft end. A pin head constructed from the ceramic matrix composite includes a first pin head end and a second pin head end. The pin head defines a pin head cavity extending inward from the first pin head end. The first shaft end is positioned in the first wall cavity, and the second shaft end is positioned in the pin head cavity. The second pin head end is positioned in the second wall cavity. The first material is different from the ceramic matrix composite.
