1. A method for forming a laminate comprising:
a step of clamping, in a plate-shaped laminate in which a plurality of fiber sheets are laminated, an area where slippage between the fiber sheets is suppressed, by each of a plurality of clamp portions disposed to be separated from each other, each of the clamp portions including a first presser and a second presser, the first presser and the second presser being configured to apply a pressing force to the laminate interposed therebetween by moving in a direction approaching each other; and
a step of moving at least one of the clamp portions such that bending is performed on the laminate while maintaining a state where relative movement between the area of the laminate and the clamp portion is suppressed;
wherein the bending is performed on the laminate by using only the clamp portions, the laminate being bent starting from corner portions of the first presser and/or the second presser.
