Problem 1.18 A load P is applied to a steel rod supported as shown by an alumi¬num plate into which a 12-mm-diameter hole has been drilled. Knowing that the shearing stress must not exceed 180 MPa in the steel rod and 70 MPa in the aluminum plate, determine the largest load P that can be applied to the rod.
