Abstract

A vehicle body structural member is formed from a fiber-reinforced resin composite. The vehicle body structural member includes a break scheduled part. The break scheduled part is provided on a load input surface to which a collision load is expected to be input. The break scheduled part is configured to, when the collision load is input, undergo a brittle fracture and divide the load input surface into a first region and a second region on both sides respectively in a predetermined first direction. When the collision load is input, a torsion is generated in each of the first region and the second region across the break scheduled part have torsions.
