  • Publication number: 20110286853
    Abstract: A blade of a wind turbine is provided. The blade includes different layers, which are used to build up the three-dimensional shape of the blade. Resin is applied to connect the layers while the blade is manufactured. A reinforcement structure is arranged close to the surface of the blade and at a resin-rich-section of the blade, where a certain amount of resin is gathered during the manufacture of the blade.
