PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a vehicle side part structure which can stabilize expansion behavior of an air bag which expands and deploys from a side door to the outer side in a vehicle width direction.SOLUTION: An impact beam 48 is attached to a door inner panel 28. The impact beam 48 includes a support part 48C including a side wall part 48C1 disposed at the inner side of an inflator 40 in a vehicle width direction and supporting the inflator 40. Thus, an expansion reaction force of an air bag 38 can be supported by the support part 48C of the impact beam 48 when the air bag 38 expands and deploys.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】サイドドアから車両幅方向外側に膨張展開するエアバッグの展開挙動を安定させることができる車両側部構造を得る。【解決手段】ドアインナパネル２８にインパクトビーム４８が取り付けられており、当該インパクトビーム４８は、インフレータ４０の車両幅方向内側に配置された側壁部４８Ｃ１を含み、インフレータ４０を支持する支持部４８Ｃを備えている。このため、エアバッグ３８が膨張展開するときに当該エアバッグ３８の展開反力をインパクトビーム４８の支持部４８Ｃで支持することができる。【選択図】図１
