<p>The invention relates to a steel vehicle body comprising interconnected shell elements that form a monocoque construction. The vehicle body is characterized in that, of two interconnected shell elements, one shell element (10, 11) has projections (10b, 11a, 11b) on its edge facing the other shell element (2). These projections are inserted though insertion openings (20a, 21a, 21b) provided in the other shell element (2). A cup (3a, 3b), which consists of a sleeve section (30a, 30b) and of a collar (31a, 31b) that is formed on one end thereof, is placed on the projections (10b, 11a, 11b) on both sides of the other shell element (2). Said collar (31a, 31b) of the cup (3a, 3b) is joined with material fit to the area of the other shell element (2), which surrounds the insertion opening (20a, 21a, 21b), and the sleeve section (30a, 30b) is joined with material fit to the projection (10b, 11a, 11b).</p> |
