Best Answer

In any application, bolting is preferred over welding if the setup needs to be taken apart, adjusted, or done quick and cheap. Also, it may be easier to drill a hole and screw something together, instead of hook up a generator, transport a welder to the site and risk a flammable tank being in the area.
