GWO Blade Repair Training Standard V2.0

2021-04-01_TS_BR_V2

The participants can act independently in applying the knowledge gained during the general safety lessons to the working environment to minimise the risks associated with composite repair work (Ability, intermediate level)

Training staff shall:

Continually assess and give feedback on the participants’ ability to apply the knowledge gained during the general safety lessons to the working environment to mitigate the risks associated with composite repair work

The participants shall:

Practice the ability to apply the knowledge gained during the general safety and chemical safety modules to their working environment by correctly selecting and using PPE appropriate to the task in hand and to work in a safe manner with the materials and tools required for each process

SANDWICH CONSTRUCTION

Learning objectives:

The participants can describe common materials used for core material (Knowledge, basic level)

The participants can explain the reasons for using a sandwich construction (Knowledge, intermediate level) The participants can explain the function of the inner and outer laminates and the core material in a sandwich construction (Knowledge, intermediate level)

Training staff shall:

Explain the function of the inner and outer laminates and the core material in a sandwich construction

Describe common materials used for core material in wind turbine blades

Explain how a sandwich construction produces a lightweight and stiff structure

Explain why this is important in terms of wind turbine blades by considering the loads on a blade, the structural requirements of the blade, and the implications for transport and lifting operations Ask the participants relevant questions about common materials used for core material, and the function of the inner and outer laminates and the core material in a sandwich construction, and the reasons for using a sandwich construction in wind turbine blades

The participants shall:

Describe in their own words and share their understanding of common materials used for core material Explain in their own words and share their understanding of the function of the inner and outer laminates and the core material in a sandwich construction Explain in their own words and share their understanding of the reasons for using a sandwich construction in wind turbine blades
