The 130 mm wide plate shown has a working tensile stress of 75 MPa and the bearing stress between the plate and the rivet is limited to 100 MPa. The rivet used to connect the plates has a working shearing stress of 50 MPa. If the diameter of the rivet is 30 mm, determine the minimum safe thickness (mm) of each plate.
