Abstract
A structural component includes a top plate and side walls. The structural component includes a curved region. The curved region is curved with the top plate side being an inner side of a curve and the opposite side of the top plate being an outer side of the curve, when viewed from the side wall side. In the curved region, the side walls are connected by the top plate on the inner side of the curve. The curved region is opened on the outer side of the curve. In the curved region, the top plate has a maximum width larger than a width of the top plate on both end sides of the structural component. When the curved region is viewed in transverse cross section, the sum of lengths of the two side walls is larger than the width of the top plate.
Claims7
A structural component comprising:
- a top plate;
- and
- two side walls that are arranged facing each other, and that are each continuous with the top plate,
- wherein the structural component includes a curved region which is curved with the top plate side being an inner side of a curve and an opposite side of the top plate being an outer side of the curve when viewed from a side wall side, the two side walls are connected by the top plate on the inner side of the curve in the curved region, and the curved region is opened on the outer side of the curve,
- when the curved region is viewed in transverse cross section, in a case in which a length of a straight line that connects a boundary portion between one side wall of the two side walls and the top plate and a boundary portion between another side wall and the top plate is taken as a width of the top plate, the top plate has a maximum width in the curved region, the maximum width being larger than the width of the top plate on both end sides of the structural component, and
- when the curved region is viewed in transverse cross section, a sum of lengths of the two side walls is larger than the width of the top plate.
