METHOD AND SYSTEM OF MAKING COMPOSITE STRUCTURES HAVING GAP FILLERS WITH CHOPPED FIBER MATERIAL There is provided in an embodiment a method of making a composite structure (26). The method includes the step of applying chopped fiber material (72) in varying thicknesses onto a first ply surface (84a) of a first composite charge (80) to form a layered composite charge (90). The method further includes the step of folding the layered composite charge (90). The method further includes the step of assembling a second composite charge (98) and the folded layered composite charge (90) to form a composite structure (26). The chopped fiber material forms a gap filler (124) in the composite structure (26). The gap filler (124) conforms to a shape of the composite structure (26) surrounding the gap filler (124). The method further includes processing the composite structure (26). 100 d 4 t 90 102b 108c 108a 08c \ 102b 108b 108b 7 2a 102b 113 12 102b
