A flanged bolt coupling consists of six 1/2-in. steel bolts evenly spaced around a bolt circle 12 in. in diameter, and four 3/4-in. aluminum bolts on a concentric bolt circle 8 in. in diameter. What torque can be applied without exceeding 9000 psi in the steel or 6000 psi in the aluminum? Assume Gst = 12 x 10^6 psi and Gal = 4 x 10^6 psi.
