A plate with an off-center hole is shown in Figure P7–36. Determine how close to the top edge the hole can be placed before yielding of the A36 steel occurs (based on the maximum distortion energy theory). The applied tensile stress is 10,000 psi, and the plate thickness is in. Now if the plate is made of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy with a yield strength of 37 ksi, does this change your answer? If the plate thickness is changed to in., how does this change the results? Use same total load as when the plate is in. thick.
