Abstract
A long composite member (center pillar) includes a main member (pillar outer panel) that has a curvature in its longitudinal direction and whose shape of a cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction protrudes on an outer side of the curvature, and a reinforcing member that is made of fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) and is disposed on an inner side of the curvature with respect to the main member and within the cross-section of the main member. One end of the reinforcing member is adhered on a side of one end of the main member, and the other end of the reinforcing member is adhered on a side of the other end of the main member. An intermediary portion between the one end and the other end of the reinforcing member is extended straight within the cross-section of the main member.
