A structure and a method of creating the structure in which relatively thin pieces of non-weldable aluminum alloy or other non-weldable material are welded together. First layers of a weldable material, such as a weldable aluminum alloy or other weldable material, having a total thickness of between 0.01 and 0.30 inches, are built up on a surface of the first piece using an ultrasonic or other solid state joining technique, and second layers of the weldable material having a similar total thickness are built up on a surface of the second piece using the same technique. The first piece is then welded to the second piece at the first and second layers of weldable material using a fusion welding technique. The resulting structure may be part of an aircraft, landcraft, watercraft, or spacecraft type of vehicle or may be used in other high-performance applications.

A method for manufacturing a different material joined member comprises: a step of punching a shaft portion of a steel rivet into a light alloy material provided with a solid resin layer on at least one surface thereof; a step of causing a shaft portion tip of the rivet to protrude from the solid resin layer on the light alloy material; a step of laying a steel material over the surface of the light alloy material on the side where the shaft portion tip of the rivet protrudes, with the solid resin layer therebetween; and a step of welding the shaft portion of the rivet with the steel material. Instead of punching the rivet, a hole may be drilled in the light alloy material provided with the solid resin layer together with the solid resin layer, the steel material may be laid over via the solid resin layer, and the shaft portion of the steel rivet may be inserted into the hole.
