Abstract
A structural member includes a top sheet portion which has a first edge portion and a second edge portion facing the first edge portion, a wall portion which extends from the second edge portion in a direction intersecting the top sheet portion, and a closed cross-sectional portion which is provided in the first edge portion, in which the first edge portion is curved toward an inside of the top sheet portion in a plan view with respect to the top sheet portion, and when a distance from the first edge portion to the second edge portion of the structural member is referred to as a structural member width, the closed cross-sectional portion forms a closed cross section on a vertical cut plane of the structural member along a direction of the structural member width, the vertical cut plane of the structural member along the direction of the structural member width has an open cross section, and a shape of the vertical cut plane of the structural member including the closed cross-sectional portion is asymmetric with respect to a center of a length of the structural member width.
