Using a stiffener to repair a part for an aircraft engine.

摘要

A method of repairing a part (10), which has a first side (10b), a second side (10a) opposite of the first side (10b), and an aperture (12) that makes the part susceptible to cracking, includes the steps of forming a slot (28) in the first side (10b) of the part near the aperture (12), inserting a stiffener (42) into the slot (28), and attaching at least one repair ply (50) onto the first side (10b) of the part to cover the stiffener (42).
