Abstract
A fabrication process using an integrated form includes assembling at least two independent sections of composite laminate about a form, such that at least a portion of the sections overlap. A bonding agent is applied between the sections, at the overlap, and the form and laminate assembly are vacuum-bagged. The bag is sealed around a vent in the form, and about the laminate assembly. A vacuum is applied within the bag, to bond the sections, and the bagged assembly is autoclaved, to cure the bonded laminate sections. The vent allows equalization of autoclave pressures within and outside of the form, to prevent crushing or deformation of the form during cure. The form becomes an integral and permanent part of the final composite product.
