<p>A system and a method for making a composite containment casing are provided. The method includes providing a mandrel, applying at least one ply of a material about the mandrel to form a first annular facesheet, applying a plurality of core segments surrounding the first facesheet, forming a casing surrounding the core segments, and curing the facesheet, core segments, and casing together forming a unitary composite containment casing. Alternatively, the facesheet and the core segments can be formed and cured first, and then form and cure the outer casing to complete the manufacture of a unitary composite containment casing,</p> |
