What is NREL5MW blade internal structural layup?

Hi,
I need NREL5MW blade internal structural layup as an input for PreComp. I’m wondering if such data are available, as I can’t find them in this report nrel.gov/docs/fy09osti/38060.pdf. In Table 2-1. of this report, some structural properties are published but not the lamina’s geometry.
Thank you so much

Dear Hossein,

NREL has not specified the detailed cross-section layup and composite material properties of NREL 5-MW turbine blade. However, Brian Resor of Sandia National Laboratories has reversed-engineered the NREL 5-MW blade and has published these design details. For more information, please see the topic on our forum found here: Structural design of the wind turbine blade.

Best regards,
