A method of producing a fiber preform, including forming a weaved preform fabric with a connection zone and multiple layers extending therefrom, each layer having an edge attached to the connection zone with a remainder of the layers extending freely from each other and from the connection zone, the attached edges being parallel and adjacent one another, each of the layers having a weaved structure including warp yarns extending at least substantially parallel to the attached edges and weft yarns extending at least substantially perpendicularly to the warp yarns, deforming at least one of the layers along a direction at least substantially parallel to the warp yarns until the weft yarns thereof have a corresponding desired orientation with respect to the warp yarns, and attaching the layers together away from the attached edges. A method of forming a weaved preform fabric for a fiber preform is also discussed.

1. A method of producing a fiber preform for a composite structural element, the method comprising: forming a weaved preform fabric including a connection zone and multiple layers extending from the connection zone, each layer having an edge attached to the connection zone with a remainder of each of the layers extending freely from each other and from the connection zone, the attached edges being parallel and adjacent one another, each of the layers having a weaved structure including warp yarns extending at least substantially parallel to the attached edges and weft yarns extending at least substantially perpendicularly to the warp yarns;deforming at least one of the layers along a direction at least substantially parallel to the warp yarns to change an orientation of the weft yarns thereof with respect to the warp yarns until the weft yarns thereof have a corresponding desired orientation with respect to the warp yarns, the desired orientation being between 0° and ±90°; andattaching the layers together away from the attached edges to retain the weft yarns of the at least one deformed layer at the desired orientation with respect to the warp yarns. 2. The method as defined in claim 1, further including, before deforming the at least one of the layers, folding at least some of the layers about the connection zone. 3. The method as defined in claim 2, wherein the layers are folded such that the preform fabric defines a T shape. 4. The method as defined in claim 2, wherein the preform fabric is formed such that at least some of the layers are disposed side by side, and folding the layers includes pivoting the layers disposed side by side toward each other to a superposed position. 5. The method as defined in claim 2, wherein the preform fabric is formed such that at least some of the layers are superposed, and folding the layers includes pivoting the superposed layers away from each other to a side by side position. 6. The method as defined in claim 1, wherein deforming the at least one of the layers includes deforming at least two of the layers in opposite directions to have opposite desired orientations. 7. The method as defined in claim 1, wherein attaching the layers is performed by stitching. 8. The method as defined in claim 1, wherein the connection zone is defined spaced apart from two opposed ends of the preform fabric, and forming the preform fabric includes weaving a plurality of the weft yarns to form loops each extending from one of the opposed ends up through the connection zone and back to the one of the opposed ends without reaching the other of the opposed ends. 9. The method as defined in claim 1, wherein the layers are first layers, and wherein forming the preform fabric includes forming a second layer having a thickness greater than a thickness of each of the first layers by weaving at least some of the weft yarns from each one of the first layers into the second layer, the second layer being connected to the connection zone. 10. The method as defined in claim 9, wherein the connection zone is defined spaced apart from two opposed ends of the preform fabric, and wherein forming the preform fabric includes weaving a plurality of the weft yarns to form loops each extending from one of the opposed ends through one of the first layers, through the connection zone, through a different one of the first layers and back to the one of the opposed ends without reaching the other of the opposed ends. 11. The method as defined in claim 9, wherein the connection zone is defined spaced apart from two opposed ends of the preform fabric, and wherein forming the preform fabric includes weaving a plurality of the weft yarns to form loops each extending from one of the opposed ends through one of the first layers, through the connection zone, through the second layer and back to the one of the opposed ends without reaching the other of the opposed ends. 12. The method as defined in claim 9, wherein forming the preform fabric includes weaving the second layer such that the connection zone is defined at one end thereof and weaving the first layers to extend from the connection zone away from the second layer. 13. The method as defined in claim 9, wherein forming the preform fabric includes weaving the second layer such that the connection zone is defined intermediate two opposed ends thereof and along a surface thereof, and weaving the first layers to rest on the surface of the second layer in two side-by-side stacks with the connected edges extending therebetween. 14. A fiber preform produced by the method defined in claim 1. 15. The fiber preform as defined in claim 14, wherein the warp yarns and the weft yarns are made of carbon fiber. 16. A method of forming a weaved preform fabric for a fiber preform of a composite structural element, the method comprising weaving a plurality of weft yarns with a plurality of warp yarns to define multiple layers, including interconnecting the multiple layers through a connection zone defined intermediate two opposed ends of the preform fabric by weaving some of the weft yarns to form loops each extending from one of the opposed ends of the preform fabric, through one of the layers, through the connection zone, through a different one of the layers and back to the one of the opposed ends without reaching the other of the opposed ends of the reform fabric and without interconnecting the one of the layers and the different one of the layers outside of the connection zone. 17. The method as defined in claim 16, wherein the multiple layers include a plurality of thin layers and a thick layer interconnected through the connection zone, and weaving the plurality of weft yarns includes weaving a plurality of the weft yarns extending through the thin layer, the connection zone and the thick layer. 18. The method as defined in claim 17, wherein weaving some of the weft yarns to form loops includes forming loops extending from the one of the ends, through one of the thin layers, through the connection zone, through the thick layer and back to the one of the ends. 19. The method as defined in claim 17, wherein weaving some of the weft yarns to form loops includes forming loops extending from the one of the ends, through one of the thin layers, through the connection zone, through another one of the thin layers and back to the one of the ends. 20. A weaved preform fabric produced by the method defined in claim 16.
