Abstract: A construction of a vehicle body structure by welding thin metal sheet panels to the substantially much thicker load bearing metal extrusions to form a vehicle body structure with a smooth exterior surface suitable for automotive, aerospace, and recreational vehicle applications. A substantially thin sheet metal panel is bent at an angle to form a hem line. The thin sheet metal panel hem line is disposed adjacent to the longitudinal edge of the metal plate structure. The bent edge of the sheet metal is corner-welded along the length of the metal plate structure. The excess metal materials formed by the weld line above the surface of the sheet metal panel and the edge of the metal plate structure is removed to form a smooth corner surface of a vehicle body structure.

Abstract: A recreational vehicle body structure having expandable body defined by two nesting chambers housed within an enclosed rigid body shell with openings on both side walls for the chambers to extend out. One of the chamber is an enclosed box with interior and exterior entry doors. The other chamber is an open box with only exterior entry door. The recreational vehicle body structure may be part of a towable trailer or a motorized recreational vehicle. In the deployed configuration, the chambers are extended laterally and independently, thereby providing additional living space to the recreational vehicle. In the travel configuration, the chambers are retracted with the enclosed box chamber nesting within the larger open box chamber and the outside walls of the chambers are flush with the body shell sidewalls, thereby reducing the body structure to within the maximum allowable exterior dimensions in length, width, and height for highway bound travel.
