Abstract
A turbine plant intake housing includes an outer shell supporting radially extending arms which include a fixed part and a movable flap associated therewith. Each arm is provided with a metal tie rod having its radially outer end fixed between two forks supported by the outer shell, and its radially inner end co-operating with a metal insert embedded in layers of coiled filaments of composite material forming a floating hub supported by the tie rods. The radially inner end of each rod is attached to the insert of the hub by use of a nut which effects a prestressing clamping of the tie rod on assembly.
