Composite layup tools for aircraft fuselage barrels, methods of assembling the layup tools, and aircraft fuselage barrels formed utilizing the layup tools are disclosed herein. A method of assembling the layup tools includes aligning an adaptor mating surface of a splice adaptor with a mandrel mating surface of a layup mandrel and initially attaching the splice adaptor to the layup mandrel at an initial attachment point. The methods further include attaching a lower lobe of the splice adaptor to a lower lobe of the layup mandrel. A method of forming a fuselage barrel assembly includes providing two fuselage barrel sections and a splice ring, aligning the two fuselage barrel sections, locating the splice ring within the two fuselage barrel sections, and attaching both fuselage barrel sections to the splice ring. The systems include a layup tool that is formed using the methods.
