OK, to give a bit more general detail as there's a bunch of people asking.
Its and epoxy/fibreglas/foam core sandwich composite making the superstructure of a 12ft wide boat. The arched section makes the roof.
The 3rd beam is due to this section needing a slightly thicker sandwich, so will add in a thinner layer of foam core so the end result is GRE>foam>gre(heavy in epoxy light on glass) >foam>gre
So with that being said, web twisting isn't an issue. It comes down purely to whether the extra layer of epoxy/glass is mor beneficial towards the top or the bottom.
Thanks all
