Wing Twist - How to Prevent?

I'm just starting to build my RV14 wings (LCP replacements finally in hand) and have watched numerous videos of people constructing their wings. I have seen some use a rack type stand but I have also seen some build them on benches. I have been using my 2 benches and clamped the spar to the bench both level and 90 degrees perpendicular for the match drilling. I am just wondering how to prevent twist as I start to rivet the ribs, rear spar etc. or is this only an issue during the skin riveting portion? Thanks in advance.
