A boom body comprises a boom front member, a boom intermediate member and a boom rear member. An arm-connection bracket is jointed to the boom front member and a vehicle body-mounting bracket is jointed to the boom rear member, thereby forming a boom. With this structure, a cross section of the boom body is less prone to be deformed and therefore, the plate thickness can be reduced, the rigidity of the boom body can be increased without mounting a cross section restraint material and the cross section of the boom is not deformed. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the boom in weight.

1. A method for making a boom for a bucket type excavator comprising the steps of: bending a rear member from a first steel plate into a first triangular cross section with arcuate corners; disposing a base of said first triangular cross section at a lower portion of said rear member; disposing an apex of said first triangular cross section at an upper portion of said rear member; bending a front member from a second steel plate into a second triangular cross section with arcuate corners; disposing a base of said second triangular cross section at a lower portion of said front member; disposing an apex of said second triangular cross section at an upper portion of said front member; providing a boom intermediate member comprising a first means and a second means; affixing an outer end of said rear member to said first means; affixing an inner end of said front member to said second means; and shaping said boom intermediate member to incline said front member with respect to said rear member so that said front member, said rear member and said boom intermediate member assume a generally boomerang shape. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein said boom intermediate member is cast steel. 3. The method according to claim 1, further comprising the step of providing at least one butt weld longitudinally along a length of at least one of three sides of said first triangular cross section of said rear member to secure at least one of said sides of said first triangular cross section into a finished shape. 4. The method according to claim 3, wherein said at least one of said front member and said rear member includes both said front member and said rear member. 5. The method according to claim 1, further comprising the step of providing at least one butt weld longitudinally along a length of at least one of three sides of said second triangular cross section of said front member to secure at least one of said sides of said second triangular cross section into a finished shape. 6. The method according to claim 5, wherein said at least one of said front member and said rear member includes both said front member and said rear member. 7. The method according to claim 1, wherein said first triangular cross section comprises an isosceles triangle and further comprises the steps of: disposing a base of said isosceles triangle facing downward; and disposing an apex of said isosceles triangle facing upward.
