Installing Laminate flooring
Instructions does not call for it, but I was wondering if I should use some sort of addhevies.

Let it float and don't use glue. In something as small as an RV, you don't need to leave as large of a gap around the edge but I would still leave at least 1/8~3/16". Also, if it's snap together type, don't pound them together. Only use enough force to make them click and no more. Otherwise you will end up with tiny raised edges that look terrible in the sun.
I have seen the results of a floor not having enough room to expand and it's amazing. The middle of the floor will rise up like a giant blister. It can move furntiure and people standing on it as it expands. I've fixed bad installs but it's a pain.
You don't want to make any mistakes or do anything other than what the manufacturers suggests.
