Section -> Create steel section properties


Section Assignment->Create (Assign steel section to steel region)
Section Assignment->Create (Assign steel section to steel region)
It turns green
Repeat Material, Section, Section Assignment for Al part
Seed Mesh (use same global size for both parts)
Mesh Part (try other options if you are a daring sort)
Repeat for Al region
