A shear web () comprising a flange () extending longitudinally in the spanwise direction is provided, the flange comprising a base () defining a primary bonding surface (). A chordwise width of the primary bonding surface corresponds substantially to a chordwise width of the intermediate strips of the spar cap. The primary bonding surface of the flange is bonded to the one or more intermediate strips of the spar cap.
