Abstract

A reinforced structural component is manufactured by forming an intermediate structural member which defines a channel extending along at least a portion of its length. A support member is disposed in the channel and affixed to the intermediate structural member. A second forming operation is carried out on the combination of the intermediate structural member and support member so as to partially enclose and fixedly retain the support member therein. The method may be applied to metallic and nonmetallic structures, and may be utilized in conjunction. with high speed metal forming processes such as roll forming. Disclosed herein are structures made according to the method as well as use of the method in the manufacture of structural components for motor vehicles.
