Embodiments of integral composite panels and joints for composite structures are described In one implementation, an integrated panel spanning substantially the entire wingspan of an aircraft, includes at least a center portion and a pair of outwardly projecting wing portions. The portions may include a skin formed from successive layers or plies of composite material which overlap and offset at the joint between respective sections creating a pad-up area to carry loads between the portions. In a particular implementation, the skin is laid over one or more structural stringers which are transitioned into the joints between sections such as by tapering of the thickness and/or stiffness of the stringer.
