Abstract
An example gas turbine engine component includes a component configured to separate a cooling air plenum from a heated gas environment. The component includes a substrate defining a surface, and a unitary structure. The unitary structure includes a cooling region and a cover layer. The cover layer defines a hot wall surface configured to face the heated gas environment. The cooling region is disposed between the cover surface and the substrate and includes a plurality of support structures extending between the cover layer and the surface of the substrate. At least some of the support structures define a respective bond surface bonded to the substrate at the surface of the substrate. An example technique for fabricating the gas turbine engine component includes additively depositing the unitary structure on the surface of the substrate.
