Plug Weld Floor Pans?

Would you say I should get out the air hammer and my bucking bar then? Some areas seem like they would be hard to access for rivets.
No, you need to weld it. The floor ties everything together, the rails/torsion bar crossmember to the firewall, etc. Mig is really the easiest way and probably 200 plug welds to do if your doing a full floor. Not really a place where I would short cut the job.The bonding and rivets is typically aluminum construction, and like Mercedes, they use 7 or 8mm titanium rivets.
