The present disclosure provides a vehicle body frame structure including: a side rail extending in a vehicle longitudinal direction and disposed so as to face a front tire in a vehicle transverse direction; a cab mount member projecting toward a vehicle transverse direction outer side, from a region of the side rail that is further toward a vehicle rear side than the front tire, and to which a body is mounted; and a projecting portion projecting toward the front tire from a region of the cab mount member that is away from the side rail in the vehicle transverse direction.

Vehicle body frame structure

Provided is a vehicle-body lower structure with a side collision sensor which vehicle-body lower structure can attain early sensing by improving a body structure. A first load transmission member of which a longitudinal section has a generally Z-shape is disposed in a closed section of a rocker. A first joining portion of first load transmission member is joined in a state where first joining portion is sandwiched between an upper flange of a rocker outer panel and an upper flange of a rocker inner panel, and a second joining portion is joined to an intermediate part, in a height direction, of a vertical wall portion of rocker outer panel. A body portion connects first joining portion and second joining portion diagonally, and transmits a load input into rocker outer panel at time of a side collision, to an upper-wall-portion side of rocker inner panel by a shortest distance.
