A method for the manufacture of a structural component (1) in composite material reinforced with stiffening stringers (2), defining, in use, at least part of an outer shell (3) of a vector (4) and comprising a skin (5) and a plurality of stringers (2) having a hollow section rigidly and integrally fixed to said skin (5), the method comprising the steps of: a) laminating a plurality of first layers (5a) of non cured or pre-cured composite material onto an external surface (6a) of a cure tool (6) to form said skin (5), so that a first face (5b) of said skin (5) defining, in use, the internal surface of the structural component (1) facing the internal environment of the vector (4) is facing the external surface (6a) of the tool (6); b) laminating respective pluralities of second layers (2a) of composite material on longitudinal hollow expandable inserts (10) to form a plurality of said stringers (2) each having a longitudinal axis (B), so that each stringer (2) is wound, at least partially, on an external surface (10a) of one respective hollow insert (10) so as to determine a longitudinal cavity (11) of each stringer (2) engaged by a relative hollow insert (10) and obtain in this way a plurality of reinforcing elements (12) each defined by one said stringer (2) wound on one said hollow insert (10); c) positioning each reinforcing element (12) on a second face (5c) of the skin (5) opposite to said first face (5b) and defining, in use, the external surface of the structural component (1) facing the environment external to the vector (4), and so that the cavities (11) of each stringer (2) face towards said second face (5c); d) holding each reinforcing element (12) on the second face (5c) of the skin (5) in a respective fixed position with respect to the tool (6); e) housing the tool (6), the skin (5) and the reinforcing elements (12) inside a vacuum bag (13); f) compacting together the first layers (5a) forming the skin (5) with the second layers (2a) forming the stringers (2) by applying the vacuum inside the vacuum bag (13); g) housing, after step f), tool (6), skin (5) and reinforcing elements (12) in a further vacuum bag (15); h) sealing the further vacuum bag (15) to delimit a vacuum chamber (16) therein; i) applying preset temperature and pressure to the outside of the vacuum chamber (16), in order to cure the composite material and determine the rigid and integral attachment of the stringers (2) to the second face (5c) of the skin (5). A structural component (1) obtained by the aforesaid manufacturing method is also described.
