Abstract: A method of manufacturing a wind turbine blade (10) is provided, the method comprising the steps of providing a first shell half (38) and a second shell half (36), providing at least one shear web (50) having a web body (61) arranged between a first mounting flange (62) and an opposing second mounting flange (63), and providing a lifting assembly (65). The lifting assembly comprising at least one crane device (68), a lifting rail (69) suspended from the at least one crane device (68), and a plurality of lifting clamps (70, 72), each lifting clamp being connected to the lifting rail (69). The method further comprises the steps of attaching the lifting clamps (70, 72) to the shear web (50), lifting the shear web (50) with the lifting assembly (65), lowering the shear web (50) into the first shell half (38) with the lifting assembly (65), bonding the first mounting flange (62) of the shear web (50) to an inner surface (66) of the first shell half (38), detaching the lifting clamps (70, 72) from the shear web (50), bringing the first and second shell halves (38, 36) together, and bonding the second mounting flange (63) of the shear web to the second shell half (36).
