Default Lift pins

OK....stupid question....most FRP works better in tension (from what I know) than compression.
Sooooo.....why is top layer of spar thicker than bottom (I will assume.....yes, I know what assume can mean....) since I will assume bottom of spar has more tension than top (which I will assume is in compression).

Not picking, just asking based on your post....
