John and I have rough fit the carbon beams into the airplane but there =
are
some healthy gaps (3/16" or less) in some areas.  I can't find any =
reference
in the manual as to how thick (or high depending on your opinion of what
dimension I talking about) should be.  The only reference is that a 2x4
should fit inside the carbon beam for the seat belt upper attachment.  =
Which
would say about 1.5"  Do you just fill the gaps with structural adhesive =
or
microglass or sand them down or what?

As I recall, I did some sanding on the beams to improve the fit.  I =
don't
think perfect fit is required.  The layups that bond them to the =
fuselage
provide the strength.
