Abstract
A process of fabricating a rotating component and a rotating component formed thereby. The rotating component has a rotational axis, at least one rim member, at least one disk member, and at least one airfoil member. The rim and disk members are welded together to define a first solid-state weld joint lying in a first plane that is not parallel to the rotational axis of the rotating component. The airfoil member is welded to the rim member to define a second solid-state weld joint lying in a second plane that is not parallel to the rotational axis of the rotating component. The rim member is located in a radially outward direction from the disk member, and the airfoil member is located in a radially outward direction from the rim member.
