Abstract

A method of repairing a composite material is provided in which a frustum-shaped portion of a composite material is removed, and the composite material and a repair material are bonded with each other while evacuating. The repair method includes step S2 of removing a damaged part 11 from the front side so as to pass through in the thickness direction while leaving a support wall protruding inward in the radial direction from the periphery of the top face of the frustum-shaped portion; step S3 of sealing the back side by placing a sealing plate, which is inserted from the front side into a through hole formed by the removing step, on the support wall; step S5 of placing the repair material through an adhesive on the composite material where the frustum-shaped portion has been removed; and step S6 of evacuating in a state in which the front side is sealed.
