 A change in temperature can cause material to change its

dimensions.

 If the temperature increases, generally a material expands,


whereas if the temperature decreases, the material will contract.

 If this is the case, and the material is homogenous and


isotropic, it has been found from experiment that the
deformation of a member having a length L can be calculated
using the formula;
T =  T L
where,
=linear coefficient of thermal expansion (unit: 1/C)
T=change in temperature
L=original length of the member
T=change in length of the member
Example

Given: =12x10-6/C
Solution:
  FY  0
FA  FB  F

AB =0 0 The change in length of the bar


is zero (because the supports do
not move)
To determine the change in
length, remove the upper support
of the bar and obtain a bar is
fixed at the base and free to
displace at the upper end.
(  �) AB  T - F So the bar will elongate by an
amount δT when only
temperature change is acting
And the bar shortens by an
amount δF when only the reaction
is acting
