A corrugated metal reinforcing member formed with continuous, integral channels and flanges is resistant welded to the bottom of the top plate by a pattern of spot resistant welds in the flanges. The channels of the reinforcing member extend across the panel from end edge to end edge of the top plate. The side edges of the top plates of adjacent panels form nailable joints. The channels are supported on the side sills of the car. The nailable joints are filled with an elastomeric compound level with the top surface of the panel.
