I have been checking on floor construction on the R-Pod and have found it to be similar to the exterior walls, foam with plywood bonded to the foam and framing in the floor.
Does any one know what the thickness of the top and lower plywood is?
Thank you
Paul

I drilled a hole in my floor to run some wiring through a few weeks ago.. didn't even think to pay that much attention. (should have) I used a home made grommet, total thickness was around 1 3/4 inches..
But.. if you look in a couple places, like right behind the power center, you will find where they cut through to run wiring and plumbing.

I would say 1 3/4 inches to 2 inches. On my 173 you can see where they cut out the floor to run the water tank fill hole. It is under one of the benches on the dinette. I have never measured it but Thats what it looks to me.
