Zusammenfassung:Methods of manufacturing rotor blade components for a wind turbine using pre-cured, prefabricated plates constructed of multiple fiber materials are disclosed. In one aspect of the present disclosure, the method includes providing a plurality of pultruded members. Each of the pultruded members includes, at least, first and second fiber materials, wherein the first and second fiber materials include at least one of different sizes or different types of fiber materials. Another step includes arranging the plurality of pultruded members into one or more layers. A further step includes joining the layers of pultruded members together to form the rotor blade component.
