RE: Prevost XLII Skin Delamination Repair
Even rivets aren't immune, see attached articles from Newell Coach. When you're building something this big there's always going to be movement. It'll be interesting to watch this development. Newell's solution is to go with larger, stronger rivets, but there's limits to this approach - eventually the strength of the skin bearing area and tear out becomes the limiting factor. Maybe it's my eyes, but the holes appear to be somewhat randomly placed and close to the edge of the panel.
