Bob: your unite is considered conventional FRAMING FRP is a plywood core with fiberglass on both sides...it is used on the exterior side only and the studs/ribs are exposed on the inside. only better wall would be one with aluminum on the outside with spray foam interior insulation and a glued on interior wall of plywood with a vinyl covering for moisture control....those walls are expensive to build because of the labor but the end result is a bullet proof/rot proof/wind proof/moisture proof wall.....one would make up the additional expense in savings on HVAC equipment and running costs over a number of years of "Living In"....the down side is proper ventilation usually mechanical and designing a system of keeping the interior and exterior air pressure the same in motion or parked.....geofkaye and the Rivercity Girlz..all and all you are in the best spot-construction wise-for the cost of the unite in most of the USA's weather......
