Two solid bars support a load P as shown. Bar (1) has a cross-sectional area of A₁ = 2900 mm² and an allowable normal stress of 70 MPa. Bar (2) has a cross-sectional area of A2 = 2050 mm2 and an allowable normal stress of 145 MPa. Assume x₁ = 2.4 m, x2 = 3.0 m, y₁ = 0.9 m, and y2 = 3.7 m. Determine the maximum load Pmax that can be supported by the structure without exceeding either allowable normal stress. Y₁ Answer: Pmax (1) = i P kN Y/₂
