A load of 18 kN is applied through a pin connection and a square bearing plate to the end of a beam that has a rectangular cross section. The base of the beam’s cross section is 76 mm and the height is 160 mm. The size of the bearing plate is 94 mm. Determine the bearing stress between the plate and the beam.
