Abstract
A frame for a vehicle which is formed to have a closed cross section and constitutes part of a vehicle body, comprising a first face portion on which a compressive force acts when a load acts from an outside, a second face portion on which a tensional force acts when the load acts from the outside, a pair of third face portions which are located between the first face portion and the second face portion and form ridgelines together with the first face portion, and a lateral reinforcement potion which is provided at least one of the third face portions and extending in a line shape from the first face portion toward the second face portion. Accordingly, the frame for a vehicle which can increase the bending strength of the frame is provided.
