Abstract

A vehicle body includes a first body component made of fiber-reinforced plastic and a second body component made of fiber-reinforced plastic. The body components are adhesively bonded to each other by an adhesive layer and are subjected to shearing load and/or tensile stress in a main stress plane, wherein the adhesive layer is shaped by way of an adhesive flange, on which the adhesive layer is oriented obliquely to the main loading plane at an angle between 30° and 60°.
