Abstract
A method for making helicopter rotor blades includes wrapping a prepreg strap around the conical or cylindrical outboard end of each weight segment. The weight segment is then placed in the rotor blade spar and goes through the spar cure cycle with it. Primary retention is provided by adhesive bonding between the weight and the spar. Secondary retention is by hoop tension in the strap, acting through interlaminar shears at the co-cured interface with the spar.
