Zusammenfassung:A liquid shim includes a bag (24) defining a closed inner volume and having sealed openings spaced inwardly from a periphery of the bag. The sealed openings are sealed from the closed inner volume and delimit holes extending through the bag. A liquid shim material (22) is flowable through the closed inner volume around the sealed openings and is curable to form a solid. The liquid shim material has a liquid shim material volume being less than the closed inner volume of the bag. A method of creating a liquid shim, and a method of shimming a gap between components, is also disclosed.
