Material definition and assignment

I'm using aluminum clad sheeting. Working in sheet metal. Creo Parametric Release 2.0

The base metal aluminum alloy is AA 3103 which of course has properties of it's own.....however

One side is Clad with AA 4343, 8-12% of wall thickness

Other side is Clad with AA 7072, 8-12% of wall thickness

How does the community handle this is terms of defining and assigning materals?

Or does this just become a "best guess" aluminum composite?

Bill,

If I understand the situation properly, you might consider defining your combination in an assembly with each material having the correct properties defined for the individual parts.
