Material such as wood allow the concrete to expand

Wood (specially timber) absorbs moister from surrounding. When we burn timber, the water inside it evaporates. It tries to escape out from the pores of wood. As a result the effective volume of wood decreases. So when wood is heated, it should not expand, but contract on its own. ...

Yes, especially if it gets damp!

It is not a good practice, but people do it. Some will tap a screw with a hammer to start a hole. Others will drive it all the way in. That is bad for the screw and the wood. Hammering a screw is counter-productive and will not have good results: When you hammer a nail into wood, the sides of the nail compress the wood. The compressed wood wants to expand pressing on the sides of the nail. The pressure keeps the...

It depends on what type of wood, but overall copper does expand more than wood when heated. The main measure of predicting the amount of a material would expand under heating is the coefficient of linear thermal expansion, which is a ratio of the amount of expansion per temperature change, the higher the number, the more it will expand when heated. Copper has a coefficient of 16.6 m/(m Kelvin), while pine has a coefficient of...
