αT, Coefficient of thermal expansion is in the unit of × 10-6/in./in./°F. For design, 6×10-6/in./in./°F is frequently used for normal weight concrete. Because the thermal coefficient for steel is approximately 6× 106×10-6 in./in./°F, the addition of steel reinforcement does not significantly affect the concrete coefficient.
