Four plates, each being 15 mm thick, are to be connected by six bolts of 19 mm diameter as shown. Consider B = 181 mm. Assume that the force is equally distributed among the rivets. A. Determine the minimum force P (Newtons) if the allowable bolt shearing stress is 33 MPa. B. Determine the minimum force P (Newtons) if the allowable plate bearing stress is 32 MPa. C. Determine the tensile stress of the top plate (MPa) at segment a-a if the force P is 35 kN.
