curved box beam

Nick After building my box beam I ran a string down the center and found that in the last 39 inches of the beam it has a curve in it of about 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch the rest of the beam is straight.The beam is made of 3/4 in ply and is filled in the middle. Is this a problem I can fix, or is it expensive firewood? THANK YOU J.D.
