Abstract
In a cylinder head for a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine comprising a casting having bottom top and side walls delimiting a cooling water space and tubular cylinder head bolt columns extending along the side walls, and transverse walls extending between opposite cylinder head bolt columns, the tubular cylinder head bolt columns have, adjacent the bottom wall, separating wall sections which are relatively thin so that they do not transmit cylinder head clamping forces to an engine block to which the cylinder head is bolted.
