A sill for a body structure of a vehicle, in an installed state, extends substantially in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. Outer, middle and inner sill parts are each of shell-like or hat-like cross section and have respective sill strengths. The outer sill part and the inner sill part are connected to one another at respective upper and lower ends thereof via flanges. A middle sill part is positioned between the outer sill part and the inner sill part. The middle sill part is connected at least to the inner sill part. At least in a region of a front section as viewed in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the outer sill part has a strength which is lower than a mean strength of the sill, which is dependent on the outer sill strength, the inner sill strength and the middle sill strength and masses thereof. |

1. A sill for a body structure of a vehicle, the sill, in an installed state, extending substantially in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the sill comprising:
an outer sill part which is of shell-like or hat-like cross section and has an outer sill strength; an inner sill part which is of shell-like or hat-like cross section and has an inner sill strength, the outer sill part and the inner sill part being connected to one another at respective upper and lower ends thereof via flanges which extend in the longitudinal direction; a middle sill part which is positioned between the outer sill part and the inner sill part, is of shell-like or hat-like cross section and has a middle sill strength, the middle sill part being connected at least to the inner sill part; wherein, at least in a region of a front section as viewed in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the outer sill part has a strength which is lower than a mean strength of the sill, which is dependent on the outer sill strength, the inner sill strength and the middle sill strength and masses thereof. |
