This is obviously fairly generic in nature, but whether caravan-specific information could be appended I'm not sure; it would certainly need the co-operation of the manufacturers. And some of the older ones, where such information would be especially useful, have long gone out of business. Other manufacturers may be reluctant to release all their technical info. on each model of their 'van. (They won't publish nose-weight info. for a start!!) As you might appreciate, this is a mammoth project requires a huge amount of time and considerable funds to continue to run and grow. But your contributions and donations help to make our job of creating a useful archive so much easier. Countless caravans have been affected by leaks in the past. Although ill-fitting items suchas windows can sometimes cause weak spots, most problems occur where the screws that hold trim strips deteriorate. That’s especially common when ordinary steel screws have been used (instead of stainless-steel fixings).Every screw hole representsa potential leak point, so a flexible mastic is used, too.However, some floor panels fail when the bonding agent shears in high-use zones (typically just inside the door, and also around the kitchen). Once this delamination spreads, the floor loses its strength dramatically. Incidentally, you should suspect problems if part of the floor starts creaking badly and feels ‘springy’ in places. In a severe case, the top layer of ply rises up like a shallow blister. As one of a few technical authors who are members of this forum I think your idea is a good one. With your working knowledge of the subject you are in a prime position to handle it. When we took up caravanning 4 years ago it would have been great to have an easy reference book to take out with us, most of the caravan and awning manuals assume the reader has some knowledge of the subject and don’t allow for complete novices. I had considered such a work myself but at the moment I don’t feel I have a broad enough knowledge base to work on. So more power to your elbow and don’t give up when you get bogged-down (as you will at some stage). In the short and to the point video course you will learn; what equipment you need to perform a damp test, how to spot the early signs of damp and how to perform the actual test itself.

Millard has been through a few changes over the years, but is one of the longest enduring names in the Australian caravan industry. Millard Caravan Renovations Enforcement Weighing Of Vehicles – Consolidated Code of Practice : Code of Practice on Dynamic Axle Weighers-1 Older Caravan Wiring DiagramsMy friend's manual on Trailers will also incorporate sections by other experts, and will include much material relevant to Caravans e. g. chassis, loading and towcar electrics etc. To date he's been on it 14 months, getting photos and information etc. and he's still working on it!! P. S. the one very useful caravan-specific info. I would relish is the position and extent, in each model, of all the wooden/metal fixing battens in the walls/roof of the 'van. The Winterisation Guide will walk you through the process of preparing your caravan for winter storage.
