A frame structure for a load-carrying vehicle includes at least one frame member extending generally in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the frame member being divided into an upper section and a lower section by a slit extending at least along a predetermined section of the frame member. The slit is shaped so as to allow a forced displacement of the upper section to a position in which it extends generally parallel to the lower section and in a manner so that the frame member is narrower along a section generally corresponding to the length of the slit, as compared with the remaining section of the frame member. A method for manufacturing a frame structure is also disclosed. |
