Abstract
A structure for reinforcing a framework member in a vehicle includes: a resin framework member that constitutes a part of a framework of a vehicle and is formed so as to have a closed cross-section; and a fiber-reinforced-resin reinforcing member. The reinforcing member has a first reinforcing part that is disposed so as to form a substantially U-shaped cross-section including one of surfaces of the framework member extending along the longitudinal direction, and a second reinforcing part that is disposed so as to form a substantially U-shaped cross-section including the other surface of the framework member extending along the longitudinal direction. At a minimum part of the framework member at which the cross-section is smallest, a portion of the first reinforcing part and a portion of the second reinforcing part are laid one on top of the other so as to overlap each other.
