A three dimensional woven preform, a fiber reinforced composite incorporating the preform, and methods of making thereof are disclosed. The woven preform includes one or more layers of a warp steered fabric. A portion of the warp steered fabric is compressed into a mold to form an upstanding leg. The preform includes the upstanding leg and a joggle in a body portion. The body portion and upstanding leg are integrally woven so there is continuous fiber across the preform. A portion of the warp steered fabric includes stretch broken carbon fibers in the warp direction, and another portion includes conventional carbon fibers. The warp steered fabric can be woven on a loom equipped with a differential take-up mechanism. The warp steered fabric can be a single or multilayer fabric. The preform or the composite can be a portion of an aircraft window frame.

1. A three dimensional woven preform comprising: one or more layers of a warp steered fabric,at least one non-elongatable portion; andat least one elongatable portion of the warp steered fabric comprising a fiber in the warp direction of the warp steered fabric which will allow the fabric to elongate as needed in a substantially circumferential direction,wherein the one or more layers of the warp steered fabric are not darted or cut to shape the preform,wherein said preform comprises an upstanding leg and a joggle in a body portion, the body portion comprising the at least one non-elongatable portion comprising conventional carbon fibers andwherein the elongatable portion of said warp steered fabric is configured such that the upstanding leg or the joggle or both are formed in a mold, andwherein the preform includes a first distinct portion of the warp steered fabric including a plurality of stretch broken carbon fibers or discontinuous tows;a second distinct portion of the warp steered fabric including the conventional carbon fibers and not the stretch broken carbon fibers or discontinuous tows, anda third distinct portion of the warp steered fabric including the stretch broken carbon fibers; andwherein the preform is configured to be an aircraft window frame. 2. The preform of claim 1, wherein said body portion including the upstanding leg or the joggle or both are integrally woven so there is continuous fiber across the preform. 3. The preform of claim 1, wherein said warp steered fabric is woven on a loom equipped with a differential take-up mechanism. 4. The preform of claim 1, wherein said warp steered fabric is a multilayer fabric. 5. The preform of claim 1, wherein a warp fiber pattern in said warp steered fabric is a pattern selected from the group consisting of ply-to-ply, orthogonal, and angle interlock. 6. The preform of claim 1, wherein said warp steered fabric is formed by interweaving a plurality of warp and weft yarns or fibers, said warp and weft yarns or fibers being selected from the group consisting of carbon, nylon, rayon, fiberglass, cotton, ceramic, aramid, polyester, and metal yarns or fibers. 7. A fiber reinforced composite comprising a three dimensional woven preform according to claim 1. 8. The composite of claim 7, further comprising a matrix material. 9. The composite of claim 8, wherein said matrix material is a resin, and said composite is formed from a process selected from the group consisting of resin transfer molding and chemical vapor infiltration. 10. The composite of claim 8, wherein said matrix material is selected from the group consisting of epoxy, bismaleimide, polyester, vinyl-ester, ceramic, and carbon. 11. The preform of claim 1, further comprising one or more layers of fabric with fibers oriented in off-axis directions interspersed between the plurality of warp steered fabrics. 12. The three dimensional woven preform of claim 1, wherein said body portion including the upstanding leg and/or the joggle are integrally woven so there is continuous fiber across the preform, andwherein the one or more layers of the warp steered fabric are not darted or cut to shape the preform.
