Unless the cutaway is wrong then it looks like the Stoneridge is laminated as it shows Luan backer.
The fiberglass skin will be laminated with a Luan backer but is still attached to the studs with adhesive. The fiberglass skin is very thin and would probably crack in time without the additional support.
With hung walls, the aluminum frame is 16 inch on center and provides the structural strength to the walls. - goducks10ExplorerUnless the cutaway is wrong then it looks like the Stoneridge is laminated as it shows Luan backer.

Augusta RV does use hung halls. I own a Augusta Flex AF34RS and it does have hung walls. Luxe as well. You can call the factory 574-848-0200 they will be more than happy to answer any questions.
Why would they have a no delam warranty? As hung walls can't delam.
Got a email to the company; will see what they say.
Actually I hope they do use a hung wall as I need another company that may fit into my future plans.
This link is pretty clear on the type of wall used. Select a model for the wall info.....
Welded Construction
16" On Center Hung Aluminum Walls – 3.25 Thick
Got email back from company and they said they use hung walls I did ask for explanation as to why they would have a warranty on something that can't happen. Will wait for that reply! Maybe I missed something.
Ryan Miller(seems to be a straight shooter) from Augusta explained that the term "Delamination" is not used for the the sidewall coming apart but the sidewall coming off the studs. Reasonable explanation but not what most know as Delam. - rmalik1Explorer
