A turbine blade comprised of at least a pair of abutting blade parts with each part having a root coupled to an attachment piece, the latter adapted to be coupled to a turbine rotor. The blade parts can be curved and each blade part may have a hollow space in the region where it abuts the other blade part to reduce the weight of the blade. The blade parts may be spigoted or mated with tongue and groove structure to reduce fluid leakage through the junction between the blade parts.

In a gas turbine engine: a turbine rotor disk having an outer periphery; a plurality of turbine blades; and an intermediate attachment piece for each blade, respectively, the attachment pieces being coupled to the rotor disk and extending outwardly therefrom, each of said turbine blades including a pair of abutting blade parts generally coextensive with each other, each blade part having a base integral therewith and a root integral with the base, each intermediate attachment piece having an outer peripheral groove receiving the root of a respective blade part, the bases of the blade parts of each blade being in longitudinal alignment with each other, extending fore and aft of the disk at an angle relative to the axis of the disk, and being in abuttment with the bases of blade parts of the adjacent blades.
