Abstract:

To provide a method for laying up a composite layer on a forming tool, closely conformable of the layer to contours of the tool while accurately positioning the layer by deforming the layer in application of the layer to the tool, and a method for handling and transporting a layer material, capable of keeping the layer material in a stable state during transportation and lamination.
