Zusammenfassung: | A vehicle roof structure includes a vehicle body and a vehicle roof. The vehicle body includes an outer side panel, a body stiffener and an inner side panel. The vehicle roof includes a roof panel and a roof stiffener. A connection portion between the vehicle body and vehicle roof forms a roof ditch which extends along a longitudinal direction of the vehicle roof structure. The roof ditch includes a bottom which extends laterally between the vehicle body and vehicle roof. Structural welds associated only with the vehicle body and separate attachment welds only connecting the vehicle roof to the vehicle body are provided on the bottom of the roof ditch. The two welds allow multiple sheets of material to be applied in the roof ditch for crash regulations. |
