We want to add some shelving (wire rack) in our lav. How do you identify where the struts/ wall frame members run vertical? In a house 16" OC is the rule. This would be in a new Winnebago Trend23L
They use aluminum rectangular tube studs in the walls that fit into the horizontal top and bottom extruded aluminum wall rails. They are not on 16 inch centers. There is wiring in some parts of the walls that runs in tracks cut into the styrofoam.
Customer service emailed me a pdf file drawing showing where the studs/rails and metal backing plates in the walls are. The plates are where cabinets and heavy items are screwed to walls and ceilings.
