Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A gas turbine engine is provided comprising an outer casing and a plurality of circumferentially positioned vane segments. The outer casing is provided with a circumferential casing slot. The plurality of circumferentially positioned vane segments are coupled to the outer casing. Each vane segment comprises at least one vane airfoil, a radially inner shroud coupled to a first end of the airfoil, a radially outer shroud coupled to a second end of the airfoil, and a strongback fixedly coupled to axially spaced-apart portions of the outer shroud such that a gap is provided between the strongback and the outer shroud. The strongback may comprise axially spaced-apart first and second end portions received in the casing slot.
