CTE - Coefficient of Thermal Expansion

The coefficient of thermal expansion describes how the size of an object changes with a change in temperature. Specifically, it measures the fractional change in size per degree change in temperature at a constant pressure. Several types of coefficients have been developed: volumetric, area, and linear. Which is used depending on the particular application and which dimensions are considered important. For solids, one might only be concerned with the change along a length, or over some area.

I am trying to find CTE expressed in 1.0e-6/degree Celsius for various material types such as A572. Can someone direct me to where I can find this information??
Thanks, B.
