ABSTRACT:
A turbine engine shroud segment comprises a body including an outer surface from and along which a segment projection extends away from and in an axial direction. The segment projection includes circumferentially spaced apart segment support surfaces. A shroud hanger comprises a body including an inner surface from and along which a hanger projection extends in an axial direction. The hanger projection includes circumferentially spaced hanger bearing surfaces. In a circumferential turbine engine shroud assembly of shroud segments and hangers, a shroud hanger is assembled between a pair of adjacent shroud segments separated by an axial interface. The hanger projection is in juxtaposition with the interface, and respective segment support surfaces and hanger bearing surfaces are in registry.
