A method of fabricating components (23) based on fiber-reinforced plastics material, in particular with the help of a wrapped mold core (10), includes the following steps:a) fabricating the mold core (10); b) wrapping the mold core (10) with a wrapper (14) that withstands resin; c) applying fiber semi-finished products (16) and introducing resin to create the plastics component (23); and d) hardening the plastics component (23) under the effect of temperature; which method is improved by the fact that, under all circumstances, and during hardening in step d), substantial pressure equilibrium is established across the fiber semi-finished product (16, 20) between ambient pressure (pu) and the pressure (pk) inside the core. A device is also described.
