I am certainly no exert on trailer construction, but I really doubt the interior walls are structural.I have seen some entry level trailers with no interior walls, or very thin, chintzy looking "wood" that looks like the crappy almost paper thin material used for packaging cheap Chinese Harbor Freight equipment. My 24 foot Wells Cargo enclosed car trailer has white vinyl covered plywood interior walls, and DalePs Pace Daytona trailer has white aluminum sheeting interior walls that are so thin, that I can not see how they would really add any strength to the trailer. I have a sales brochure for my Wells Cargo, which shows a photo of the trailer skeleton, with no interior or exterior paneling, and it appears to me, that all the strength is built into the frame and the roof and wall ribs.
