The linear thermal expansion of steel 2011-05-03
From Scot:
Several questions on your site deal with the linear thermal expansion of steel. Such as how much will a piece of steel grow in length if it is heated. My question is similar but I would like to know if there is a different calculation to determine how much the diameter of a round bar will grow when heated. Can you tell me how I can calculate how the diameter of .500" round steel will increase for every degree of temperature change? If a bar is raised from 60 degrees F to 120 degrees F how much will the diameter change?

I know it's heavy, but how heavy, per linear foot? 2007-11-19
From Gary:
I am trying to find out the weight of a linear foot of a steel bar with the following measurements.
Thickness - 1.125"
Length - 120"
Height - 18"

Density of carbon steel - .2837
I know it's heavy, but how heavy, per linear foot?

The coefficient of thermal expansion for steel 2005-10-14
From Jim:

Is the following statement true?

The coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is 0.00000645in/in/deg. Doesn't sound like much but when you run out the numbers it comes to .405504 ft/mile/deg. Still doesn't sound like much, only about 5". Then multiply by 40 degrees and you get a piece of rail that has grown by 16.22 feet in that one mile. It's not at all unusual for the rail temp to go from say, 40 deg to 80 deg on a spring or fall day. Remember that on a sunny day, the rail temp can be significantly higher than the air temp as well."

I ran the math and came up with an answer closer to 16 inches, instead of 16 feet. Which is closer to being correct?
