Abstract
At a plurality of welding positions in an overlap portion of a plurality of members including a high-tensile steel sheet whose carbon content is 0.07 weight % or more, first beads (31 to 36) in a closed loop shape or a closed loop-like shape and second beads (41 to 46) in a closed loop shape or a closed loop-like shape on inner sides of the first bead (31 to 36) are formed by remote laser welding for joining. At this time, there are a procedure for successively forming the plural first beads (31 to 36) and a procedure for successively forming the plural second beads (41 to 46) for the plural formed first beads (31 to 36), and in both of the cases, the beads are each formed at a position except the closest welding position among the plural welding positions. Consequently, it is possible to enhance strength of a weld zone and to suppress welding deformation.
