Could SIPs be used to build a travel trailer? I'm considering building a Gypsy Wagon about 8' x 14'. Could I use SIP panels for the floor and four walls? What is their relative weight compared to stick framing...they'd be lighter, right?

thats what many are already made of, as well  as insulated overhead doors, insulated entry doors and insulated box vans. They are used for strength and light weight, 2" or 3" thickness would be appropriate.
