I agree with Tim, alu welds are much weaker.
Gussets and bolts are much stronger.
The most likely reason the weld broke, vibration.

as strong or stronger than the welded aluminum joints if properly done. Even
(good) high strength Pop-Rivets could be use easily to attached the gussets.

I just noticed that a few of the welds on the top aluminum framework
of my Komet trailer have broken. *Maybe I am just lazy but I am
concerned about getting the welds redone with the fiberglass top right
next to it. *Does anyone have any suggestions for a good bonding agent
to use on the broken welds?

Thanks,
