    Abstract: An aluminum alloy material as one aspect of the present disclosure has a chemical composition including: Zn: more than 6.5% (mass %, same applies hereafter) and 8.5% or less; Mg: 0.5% or more and 1.5% or less; Cu: 0.10% or less; Fe: 0.30% or less; Si: 0.30% or less; Mn: less than 0.05%; Cr: less than 0.05%; Zr: 0.05% or more and 0.10% or less; and Ti: 0.001% or more and 0.05% or less, a balance including Al and inevitable impurities. In the aluminum alloy material, a mass ratio of Zn to Mg (Zn/Mg) is 5 or more and 16 or less, and a metallographic structure includes an equigranular recrystallized structure.

    Abstract: A production method of producing a welded structural member with excellent stress corrosion cracking resistance that includes a first artificial aging treatment step of maintaining a 7000-series aluminum alloy material at a temperature of 90 to 110° C. for 1 to 5 hours, a second artificial aging treatment step of maintaining the 7000-series aluminum alloy material subjected to the first artificial aging treatment step at a temperature of 145 to 160° C. for 4 to 12 hours; a welding step of welding the 7000-series aluminum alloy material subjected to the second artificial aging treatment step with another aluminum alloy material to form a welded structure; and a heat treatment step of heat-treating the welded structure at a temperature of 165 to 195° C. for 10 to 60 minutes. The material includes Zn, Mg, Zr, Ti, Cu, Mn, Cr, and Al, and is formed of a metallographic structure that is of a fibrous structure.
