Abstract
A spar cap for a rotor blade of a wind power installation, having a longitudinal extent from a first end to a second end, a transverse extent orthogonal to the longitudinal extent, and a thickness orthogonal to the longitudinal extent and to the transverse extent. A method for producing a spar cap as mentioned at the outset. The spar cap has a longitudinal extent from a first end to a second end, a transverse extent orthogonal to the longitudinal extent, and a thickness orthogonal to the longitudinal extent and to the transverse extent, at least two tiers of a first fiber composite material, and at least one tier of a second fiber composite material, wherein the first fiber composite material has a matrix material and/or fibers which is/are different from that/those of the second fiber composite material, the second fiber composite material is disposed in a portion adjacent to the second end, in the direction of the thickness between the at least two tiers of the first fiber composite material, and the at least one tier of the second fiber composite material terminates ahead of the second end.
