Pop riveting is a technique used to join together two pieces of metal or plastic with rivets. A hole is drilled through both pieces of metal, and the rivet is passed through both holes. Rivet pliers are placed onto the pin, and the handles are pulled together, pulling the pin head into the rivet. The pin breaks off, leaving the rivet attached firmly in place.

How can you repair holes from an iron sheet?

Do you mean in an iron sheet? It is possible to fusion weld a hole in an iron sheet - panel beaters do it every day, but it takes skill. For the amateur, soldering would be an easier option, or perhaps 'pop riveting' a patch over the hole.
