Abstract

A fiber preform constituting the fiber reinforcement of the part to be made is itself made by shaping and consolidating a fiber fabric by a liquid process. An interphase layer between the fibers and the matrix is formed on the consolidated preform prior to densification thereof with the matrix, such that the operation of densifying the consolidated preform can be performed without requiring supporting tooling therefor.
