One embodiment includes a rib structure to be used, for example, in any number of aerospace applications, the rib structure, comprising a first piece having a first curvature in a first plane; and a second piece having a second curvature in a second plane that is different from the first plane. The first piece and the second piece are bonded together to form the rib structure. In certain embodiments, the first piece further comprises a plurality of discontinuous flanges to interface with a plurality of skin surfaces. In other examples, the first piece includes an aft spar interface for bonding to a surface. In some implementations, the first piece includes a forward spar interface for bonding to a surface. Manufacturing of the airframe/aircraft parts, panels, and rib components can include any suitable composites, alloys, titanium, aluminum, artificial materials, sheet metal, etc.
