A liquid shim material (500) with a magnetically permeable material (502, 504) is applied in a location (400) for the shim between a plurality of composite parts (302, 402). A magnetic field (510) is applied to the magnetically permeable material (502, 504) in the location (400). The magnetic field (510) is configured to heat the liquid shim material (500) to a temperature to cause the liquid shim material (500) to become solid and form the shim.
