The disclosure describes an example technique that includes cold spraying first particles and second particles of a metal alloy on at least a portion of a surface of a substrate to form a deposit on the surface of the substrate. The first and second particles have been subjected to different heat treatments prior to cold spraying. Cold spraying involves accelerating the first particles and the second particles toward the surface of the substrate without melting or creating other thermally induced changes to a microstructure of the first and second particles. As a result, the first particles form a first, heat-treated component and the second particles form a second non-heat-treated or differently-heat-treated component, and the particles and substrate are not subject to a heat treatment during the cold spray process that may further modify their thermomechanical properties.

Multi-component deposits

A turbine shroud for a gas turbine engine includes a carrier and a blade track segment. The carrier is formed to include an inwardly opening blade track channel and the blade track segment is positioned in the blade track channel to couple the blade track segment with the carrier.

Turbine assembly with load pads

A retention feature for use in a gas turbine engine is disclosed herein. The retention feature includes a ceramic post, an insert, and a braze layer coupling the insert to the ceramic post. The ceramic post includes a body adapted to be coupled to a turbine engine component and a head coupled to the body. The insert is arranged in a space formed in the head and the braze layer extends from the ceramic post to the insert to bond the insert to the ceramic post.
