VEHICLE ROOF STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING VEHICLE ROOF STRUCTURE

A vehicle roof structure includes a reinforcement extending in a width direction of a vehicle between two roof side rails on the opposite sides in the width direction. The load transmission member includes a first coupling portion that couples the load transmission member to the reinforcement and a second coupling portion that couples the load transmission member to one of the roof side rails. A load transmission portion is located between the first coupling portion and the second coupling portion when the load transmission member is viewed in the front-to-rear direction. The load transmission portion includes a part extending straight in the width direction. An inflator supporting portion extends from the load transmission portion.
