it is easy to repair it if any problem exist
Better in what way? Rivited joints are generally cheaper while welded joints are generally stronger.
instead of being riveted, they were Welded
They are riveted joints
The chasis is usually both bolted and welded and even riveted in the trucks.
What are the basic mechanical testing methods for arc welded joints?
It takes a lot more stress and force to break a weld than it does to pop a rivet.
That's what I need to know

It's often faster and can be stronger too.
The efficiency of riveted joints is the ratio between the minimum strength of the joint against failure by tension, shear or bearing to that of the members without a joint .balamurugan.g
