A method for forming stiffened composite parts, the method comprising:
- cutting off relatively short fiber band pieces of a first length from a spread fiber band;
- placing the relatively short fiber band pieces at a set of predetermined positions on the core;
- and
- fixing the relatively short fiber band pieces at the set of predetermined positions through use of a binder material.

A method of forming a composite panel assembly, the method comprising:
- disposing a first layer of long fiber band pieces at a first set of predetermined positions;
- disposing a core adjacent to the first layer;
- disposing a second layer of short fiber band pieces at a second set of predetermined positions adjacent to the core, wherein the short fiber band pieces are shorter than the long fiber band pieces;
- and
- fixing the first layer and the second layer through the use of a binder material.
