Abstract

The panel member molded from a fiber reinforced plastic material includes the waved plate section. In the waved plate section, lateral wall portions are connected to upright wall portions through bent portions. Each lateral wall portion includes a general portion extending along the wavelength direction of the waved plate section. A plate thickness of the general portions of the lateral wall portions is set thinner than a plate thickness of the upright wall portions. The general portion at least does not include bubbles with a larger diameter than reinforcing fibers. An array direction of the reinforcing fibers disposed in the general portion of the lateral wall portion is set in a direction running along the wavelength direction of the waved plate section.
