VEHICLE BODY STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR ASSEMBLING VEHICLE BODY STRUCTURE.

摘要

A vehicle body structure (1) comprises roof side rails (20), a roof arch (4), and a roof panel (5). The roof side rails (20) have placement sections (26) which extend inward in the width direction of the vehicle and on which the outer ends (5A) of the roof panel (5) in the width direction of the vehicle are placed. The outer ends (4A) of the roof arch (4) in the width direction of the vehicle are located further toward the outer sides in the width direction of the vehicle than the inner ends (26A) of the placement sections (26) in the width direction of the vehicle, are joined to the roof side rails (20), and are disposed at positions separated downward from the outer ends (5A) of the roof panel (5) in the width direction of the vehicle. The roof arch (4) and the roof side rails (20) have flange sections (24, 25, 43, 44) in contact with the other to prevent the downward movement of the roof arch (4). The flange sections (24, 25, 43, 44) are located above the outer ends (4A) of the roof arch (4) in the width direction of the vehicle.
