ABSTRACT:
A shroud support for a gas turbine engine includes a mounting flange mountable to a casing, a hanger for supporting a turbine shroud, and an annular coupling joining the mounting flange to the hanger. The coupling includes a set of circumferentially spaced apertures defining a set of beams therebetween, with the beams being sized and configured for attenuating radial distortion from the mounting flange transmitted to the hanger. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the coupling includes a frustum which includes the apertures and beams.
