Abstract
A member, particularly a side member of a vehicle body structure, is formed by an extruded section manufactured or light metal which, viewed in the vertical direction, has at least one hollow-section portion. In order to achieve a high energy absorption in the case of an impact shock and for the space-saving connection of an impact-absorbing damper of a bumper arrangement, the member comprises a central tube portion and two outer hollow-section provides which are connected to the tube portion by diagonally extending webs.
