Coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE): Approximately $10 imes 10^{-6} /°C$. Concrete can crack due to thermal expansion, which is why expansion joints are critical in pavement and other structures.

Coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE): Approximately $17 imes 10^{-6} /°C$. Copper's CTE means that it can expand significantly with heat, affecting electrical connections and plumbing systems.

Coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE): Approximately $23 imes 10^{-6} /°C$. Aluminum's high thermal expansion rate can lead to significant dimensional changes, influencing design choices in structural and mechanical applications.

Coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE): Approximately $12 imes 10^{-6} /°C$. Steel structures may expand or contract with temperature changes, potentially causing issues in connections and thermal stress if not properly accounted for.
