In a vehicle (10), a gusset (60) is provided at a lower end portion of a front pillar (40), a body wall portion (60A) of the gusset (60) is joined to the front pillar (40), and a bottom wall portion (60C) of the gusset (60) is joined to an upper wall portion (22B) of a rocker outer RF (22). Thus, when the front pillar (40) is about to collapse rearward, the upper wall portion (22B) supports the bottom wall portion (60C) of the gusset (60) from below the vehicle. Therefore, the front pillar (40) is restrained from collapsing. Besides, the rocker outer RF (22) receives, on a surface thereof, a load input from the gusset (60). Therefore, the load input to the rocker outer RF (22) is dispersed, so the load can be restrained from concentrating. |
