Shroud segment and assembly with surface recessed seal bridging adjacent members

A turbine engine shroud assembly comprising a plurality of circumferentially disposed shroud segments, wherein:

• each shroud segment comprises a shroud segment body made of a ceramic matrix composite material having a tensile ductility measured at room temperature to be no greater than about 1%, the shroud segment body having a radially outer surface extending at least between a pair of first and second spaced apart, opposed outer surface end portions, at least one of the first and second outer edge portions of the radially outer surface in the pair having a surface depression portion including a depression portion seal surface of a first shape along the depression portion, the depression portion seal surface joined with the shroud body radially outer surface through an arcuate transition surface, with the first and second outer edge portions of a shroud segment being distinct from a surface of a juxtaposed adjacent second member by a separation therebetween;
• and,
• a fluid seal member is retained in the surface depression portion and bridges the separation;
• the fluid seal member including a fluid seal member surface of a second shape matched in shape with the first shape of the depression portion seal surface and in juxtaposition for contact with the depression portion seal surface along the separation;
• the turbine engine shroud assembly including a seal retainer carried by a shroud hanger separate from and unsecured with the ceramic matrix composite material of the shroud segment body, the seal retainer applying a force to the fluid seal member toward the shroud segment to retain the fluid seal member in the surface depression portion.
