GWO Blade Repair Training Standard V2.0

2021-04-01_TS_BR_V2

Training staff shall:

Give constructive feedback on the participants’ explanations about the consequences of and how to reduce the possibility of kinked and bent fibres in a laminate repair

OVERLAPS

Learning objectives:

The participants can recognise the terms ‘overlap’ and ‘ scarfing ’ and the difference between scarfing and overlap (Knowledge, basic level) The participants can recognise that different approaches will be used in different companies’ dependent on company specific procedures (Knowledge, basic level) The participants can explain the importance of overlaps between the repair material and existing material (Knowledge, intermediate level)

Training staff shall:

Define the terms ‘overlap’ and ‘ scarfing ‘ in the context of blade repair fibre materials

Explain the difference between scarfing and overlap

Emphasise that different approaches will be used in different companies, dependent on company specific procedures Explain how the strength of the repair depends on each layer of repair fibres overlapping the corresponding layer of existing fibres to ensure the correct load transfer through the repair

Explain that each layer of damaged fibres must be repaired

Ask the participants relevant questions about the importance of maintaining the correct overlaps between each repair layer and the corresponding existing layer in the damaged composite laminate

The participants shall:

Explain in their own words and share their understanding of the importance of maintaining the correct overlaps between each repair layer and the corresponding existing layer in the damaged composite laminate

Training staff shall:

Give constructive feedback on the participants’ explanations about the importance of maintaining the correct overlaps between each repair layer and the corresponding existing layer in the damaged composite laminate

DRY FIBRES AND AIR VOIDS

Learning objective:

The participants can explain the effect of dry fibres and air voids on the strength of a laminate structure (Knowledge, intermediate level)
