<p>A front pillar for an automobile includes an outer panel (217), an inner panel (218), and a hollow member (253) disposed between the outer and inner panels. Outer flanges (282, 268) of the outer and inner panels are overlapped with each other to form a closed void section (331) and a seal attachment section (245). The seal attachment section includes a rear section reinforcing member (243) and a front section reinforcing member (244) sandwiched between the outer flanges of the outer and inner panels in a rear end section and a front end section, respectively, of the front pillar, and a gap channel (347) formed to communicate with the closed void section by partially separating the outer flanges of the outer and inner panels at a central section of the front pillar. The reinforcing members are joined to an outer wall section (262) of the hollow member.</p> |
