It takes a lot more stress and force to break a weld than it does to pop a rivet.
instead of being riveted, they were Welded
I found myself riveted as I listened to the speech.
The Persian ships were larger and relied on closing to enemy ships to board. The Greek ships were lighter and more manoeuverable, and relied on ramming and sinking the opposition.
to build ships better o.o
The technology in the 1400-1500's made ships better for sailing by the use of rudders, moveable sails, and larger ships. Navigating became better through the use of the astrolabe and better compasses. Mapping also was better.

Better in what way? Rivited joints are generally cheaper while welded joints are generally stronger.
The chasis is usually both bolted and welded and even riveted in the trucks.
it is easy to repair it if any problem exist
modern ships are welded, older ships use rivets to hold the steel together
I have a 12 foot welded flatbottom Jon boat that I purchased used ten years ago. I have used this boat at least twice a month since and have never had a problem with the welds. I have never owned a riveted boat so have no first hand knowledge as to the quality of such. I have not used a motor on my boat, we paddle, so that may have made a difference as to the abuse. ==answer both are good depending on the size and application of boat rivets however do move and pop and become loose with age and use
The different types of joints in steel structures include welded joints, bolted joints, and riveted joints. Welded joints involve fusing steel members together using heat, while bolted joints use bolts to hold steel members together. Riveted joints use rivets to connect steel members through a hole punched in both pieces.
Neither, it was riveted together. Initially the pieces were assembled in the factory using bolts, and then were replaced one by one with heated rivets, which contracted during cooling creating a very tight fit. Only a third of the 2,500,000 rivets used in the construction of the Tower were inserted directly on site as preassembled and riveted pieces were built off site.
Prior to 1941 they were built from riveted steel. From 1941 thru 1945 they were cast steel and welded steel. From the Korean War thru Vietnam they were cast (with some welding) steel. With the one exception of the Vietnam era M551 Sheridan tank which was welded ALUMINUM (hull only). The Sheridan's turret was welded steel (and the gun was steel). Post Viet War US tanks are composite (classified) armor with steel exteriors (welded).
I was riveted to my father's agony.
With ships not fitted to carry containers on deck they can usually be lashed down in the ships internal holds (if available). If the containers need to be stored on deck lashing points can be welded to the weather deck to facilitate this.
it is riveted in.
