Original Abstract Submitted

A joined structural body includes a first member having a plate shape and including a first surface, a plurality of first joining portions, and a positioning portion, and a second member joined to the first member, having a plate shape, and including a second surface, a plurality of second joining portions, and a positioned portion engaged with the positioning portion. Distances of the plurality of first joining portions from the positioning portion in a plane perpendicularly intersecting with the thickness direction are different among the plurality of first joining portions. Each of the plurality of first joining portions includes a first rib. Each of the plurality of second joining portions includes a second rib. The first rib and the second rib are joined to each other at an intersecting point where the first rib and the second rib intersect with each other when viewed in the thickness direction.
