A method for producing a prepreg, includes: preparing a reinforcing fiber sheet containing multiple reinforcing fiber bundles, a matrix resin composition, first and second release sheets, and elastic members; forming a prepreg precursor by providing the matrix resin composition on the reinforcing fiber sheet; sandwiching the prepreg precursor between the first and second release sheets so that first surfaces of the first and second release sheets make contact with the prepreg precursor and that the first and second release sheets respectively include extended portions that protrude outward from both edges of the prepreg precursor in a width direction; positioning the elastic members to face the extended portions of the second release sheet and to make contact with the second surface of the second release sheet; and compressing the prepreg precursor, first and second release sheets and the elastic members all at once in a thickness direction of the prepreg precursor. |
