Two loads are applied to frame structure as shown in Figure Q$2.$ Knowing that the frame and all

connection pins are made of steel, determine

$($a$)$ the diameter of the pin at $A,B,D$ and E $.$ Provided that the diameter of pin at $A,B$ and E is the

same, and ultimate shearing stress of pins is $395$ MPa $.$

$($b$)$ the required thickness of the bracket supports at D $,$ knowing that the allowable bearing stress

of the steel used is $240$ MPa $.$

Given the factor of safety with respect to shear is $3\mathrm{.}1$
