A front pillar for an automobile includes an outer panel, an inner panel, and a hollow member disposed between the outer and inner panels. The outer panel has a roof-joining outer flange section projecting toward a roof skin flange section of a roof beyond the hollow member, and joined by spot welding to the roof skin flange section. A roof-joining extended flange section is joined by welding to at least two surfaces of the hollow member, extended to project toward the roof skin flange section beyond the hollow member and overlap the roof-joining outer flange section, and joined by spot welding to the roof skin flange section together with the roof-joining outer flange section. |
