•A core stagger layered strategy is proposed for the honeycomb sandwich panels.•Experiments indicate availability of the strategy and accuracy of the numerical simulation.•For a given mass and geometrical size, the increase of layer number and cell size consolidate this effect.•The strategy provides...
