Two axial members are used to support a load P applied at joint B. Member (1) has a cross-sectional area of A = 3,080 mm2 and an allowable normal stress of 180 MPa. • Member (2) has a cross-sectional area of A2 = 4,650 mm2 and an allowable normal stress of 75 MPa. Determine the maximum load P that may be supported without exceeding either allowable normal stress.
