A transverse drilled and reamed hole can be used in a solid shaft to hold a pin that locates and holds a mechanical element, such as the hub of a gear, in axial position, and allows for the transmission of torque. Since a small-diameter hole introduces high stress concentration, and a larger diameter hole erodes the area resisting bending and torsion, investigate the existence of a pin diameter with minimum adverse affect on the shaft. Then formulate a design rule. (Hint: Use Table A–16.)
