Node merging for bodies of two differents parts.

kenny.fernando.conto
I made the model by parts due to each part has different mechanical properties. I would like to marge the common faces nodes but, unfortunately, MSC Apex can not realise that procedure if the bodies created belong to different parts. How can I solve it? if that is not possible, What is the best method to mesh the geometry and that the common faces nodes being merged?

    No. For 1D meshes, if they're in the same Part they will automatically be connected. If they are in different Parts you need to specifically create connections: a good option for this is to use Auto Connect Vertices in the Custom Tools menus:

    Creating section properties for your beams is done using the Beams tool:

    Assigning material properties can be done from the Materials tool:
