Abstract
A vehicle body side structure is provided in which a load transmission member has a lateral inboard portion and a load-receiving member has a lateral outward portion facing the lateral inboard portion of the load transmission member. The lateral inboard portion and the lateral outward portion are configured to transmit loads, applied on a vehicle door in multiple directions from an inner door auxiliary member to a crossmember. Accordingly, the load applied to a location offset from the load transmission member and the load applied on the vehicle door in the direction oblique to the lateral direction of the vehicle are effectively transmitted to the crossmember (vehicle body) without substantial reduction of the road transmission rate. Thus, transferring the force of an offset impact as efficiently as that of an impact that occurs on the location of the load transmission member.
