A turbine blade includes a profiled blade, which extends along a blade axis to be capable of absorbing high thermal and mechanical loading, on the one hand, and to ensure a comparatively economical consumption of coolant, on the other. For this purpose, the blade aerofoil includes, integrally formed on it, a hot-gas platform extending transversely to the blade axis and, above it, a load platform. A mechanical connection between the load platform and the hot-gas platform occurs exclusively by way of the blade aerofoil. |
