Wood construction
New to trailers and have been looking at 24' travel trailers. The ones we have found are wood construction. Is this a problem over time? Does the vibration during traveling tend to loosen joints?

Like all things in life there are good and bad things about wood for a structure.
A lot of people think that aluminum is the perfect building material and has no faults. It's not. Aluminum work hardens and cracks. Welds break. Fiberglass can delam.
There is problems with wood to. It can rot.
About the best material I found for building trailers is steel. It doesn't work harden and it doesn't rot. But then again there is the rust factor.
I guess it's true. There is not perfect building material.
