Abstract
A zinc-plated steel sheet of an aspect of the present invention includes a steel sheet having a predetermined chemical composition and a zinc-plated layer. In the steel sheet, steel microstructures in a range of ⅛ thickness to ⅜ thickness, having the center at ¼ thickness from a steel sheet surface, include, by vol %, ferrite: 0% to 10%, bainite: 0% to 20%, tempered martensite: 70% or more, fresh martensite: 0% to 10%, retained austenite: 0% to 10%, and pearlite: 0% to 5%. In the zinc-plated steel sheet, the amount of hydrogen emitted when the steel sheet is heated to 200° C. from a room temperature after removal of the zinc-plated layer is 0.40 ppm or less per mass of the steel sheet, the tensile strength is 1470 MPa or more, and no cracking occurs in a U-shape bending test where a stress equivalent to 1000 MPa is applied for 24 hours.
