ABSTRACT:
A method enables a gas turbine engine compressor including a stator assembly and a rotor assembly to be assembled. The method comprises providing a casing formed from a plurality of rings, and coupling a first of the casing rings around the rotor assembly such that a radially inner surface of the first casing ring is axially aligned with, and radially outward from, a row of rotor blades extending from the rotor assembly. The method also comprises coupling a second of the casing rings to the first casing ring with a fastener assembly, such that the first casing ring radially inner surface facilitates insulating the fastener assembly from the compressor flowpath.
