Abstract: A method enables a structural cover for a gas turbine engine to be manufactured. The method includes forming a torroidial body including an integrally-formed windage cover portion and a seal flange portion, and forming a plurality offastener openings extending from a forward side of the torroidial body to an aft side of the torroidial body, such that when installed in the gas turbine engine, the windage cover portion facilitates shielding the fastener openings from a gas flow path.

Abstract: An anchor adapted for being embedded within a concrete sandwich panel to facilitate lifting thereof is disclosed. The anchor includes a neck supporting a head adapted for mating with a conventional lifting assembly. The neck is supported on a body portion adapted for being at least partially embedded within the sandwich panel. The body portion includes a pair of opposing wings extending radially outwardly from a central axis wherein each wing includes an inner portion adapted to be embedded within a wythe of insulation and an outer portion adapted to be embedded within a wythe of concrete.
