A method of manufacturing a component such as a gas turbine fan blade. The method comprises: disposing a plurality of webs between a plurality of panels; and deforming the panels and the webs by applying internal pressure between the panels, thereby forming a series of internal cavities (15) partitioned by the webs (20-22). Weakened regions (30a,30b,30c) are formed in the webs which open to form holes (30) in the webs (20-22) during the deformation step. A damping material (17) is introduced into at least one of the cavities (15) whereby it flows from the cavity into the other cavities via the holes in the webs. |
