Abstract
A method for the production of reinforced hollow sections with a continuous periphery. In order to provide in a simple manner, hollow sections with selective local reinforcement at points subject to high mechanical loads, an opening is formed in the periphery of the hollow section and a reinforcing plate is inserted into the opening, such that it at least projects into the hollow section. The reinforcing plate is then joined to the hollow section in the region of the edge of the opening.
