  • the method then consists in welding a second series of elements 1 ', both on the support 7 and on the elements 1, the elements being interposed in the spaces formed between the elements 1 of the first series.
  • Figures 13 and 14 show that the elements 1 and the are arranged head to tail.
  • the blank thus obtained may also be machined to obtain the desired object.
  • the bases 10, 10 '; 11, 11 'and 80, 81 of the elements 1, 1' and 8 slightly concave.
  • the flanges could also be obtained by producing at least two successive layers.
  • the metal elements used for the implementation of the process are made of a titanium alloy or a nickel alloy, known to be difficult to machine.
