Abstract
A process for repairing a framework (,) composed of profile members, in particular for repairing the body structure of a vehicle in which a damaged subassembly (,) composed of several profile members (,) is removed by cutting through the profile members at locations which are still undamaged and replaced by a corresponding replacement subassembly (,E). For flush fitting of the replacement subassembly against the free ends of the cut profile members of the framework (,), a fitting case (,) is slidably inserted into the end of the respective profile members of the replacement subassembly or of the profile members of the framework. After positioning the replacement assembly the fitting cases are slidably displaced such that they extend partially into the abutting ends of the profile members. The profile members are then permanently secured to the fitting cases.
