Aluminum is higher expansion - about 23 ppm/C, whereas steels range from 12ppm/C for alloy steel and carbon steel, 17 ppm/C for stainless 300 austenitic series, and 11 ppm/C for stainless 400 martensitic series
thermal expansion depends on Temperature and material of steel
galvanised steel is a lot more safer....... if u go by the book.... it is upto 10 times stronger than stainless steel in aluminum
Steel is a ferrous metal, aluminum is a non-ferrous metal
The joint doesn't prevent expansion and contraction but it limits the damage caused by thermal stress. It allows room for the concrete ( or steel ) to expand and contract without creating the severe cracks that would form without them.
No. Stainless Steel will resist contamination from the aluminum when they are used together.

Low resistance to fire, and high thermal expansion.
The rims and coolers. Fieros are primarily steel, thermal plastic, and fiberglass.
Aluminum. It has a higher value for thermal conductivity than stainless steels.
Aluminum is less dense than steel, so has less mass per volume to absorb heat energy. For the same amount of heat energy put into the same volume of aluminum and steel, the aluminum will increase in temperature faster since there is less mass to heat up. This is also known as thermal inertia. Aluminum has less thermal inertia than steel.
The answer depends on what causes the elongation: a stretching force (tension) or thermal expansion.
high thermal expansion
As current passes through steel, it heats up from resistive heating. As it heats up, it expands. A typical coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is 13x10-6 m/m K but the exact coefficient of thermal expansion of steel depends on the type of steel. For example:Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion for:(10-6 m/m K)(10-6 in/in oF)Steel13.07.3Steel Stainless Austenitic (304)17.39.6Steel Stainless Austenitic (310)14.48.0Steel Stainless Austenitic (316)16.08.9Steel Stainless Ferritic (410)9.95.5
6.3 in/in.°F or 11.3 µm/m.°K
It depends on what you compare it to. Steel has a thermal conductivity about 100 times greater than insulation, but is less conductive than materials such as ceramic or copper.
aluminum has a lower melting point, higher thermal conductivity, and doesn't change color before it goes molten
