A steel [E = 200 GPa; ν = 0.3; α = 11.5 ×10-6/°C] plate has a rectangular hole at its center and four circular holes at the corners. At an initial temperature of Ti = –20°C, the plate is 100 mm wide, 115 mm long, and 11 mm thick. The rectangular hole is 35 mm wide and 85 mm long. The circular holes have a diameter of 25 mm. At a final temperature of Tf = 44°C, determine the thickness of the plate.

An upward load is applied to a square rod that has a width of 10.70 mm. The rod is connected to the ground using a pin that has a diameter of 9.36 mm. If the average shear stress in the pin is limited to 195 MPa, determine the maximum load that can be applied to this connection.
