materials

[Anonymous]

I am using Fusion 360 and am needing to use cement as one of my materials.  To my surprise it is not a default material.  Is there somewhere I can download more materials or how do I create a new one?

The closest material we have to cement is concrete. You can download it by checking "show downloadable materials", and then navigating to Other > Cement. 
Then click the download icon and it'll download and install that material for you to use. 

After you've applied it, you can right click on the material and select Edit to customize it. 

Let me know if this helps. 

Cheers,

I cannot find the button for "show downloadable materials" so I can add concrete/cement? Can you explain step by step how to add this material to my library.

I found downloadable Concrete Appearance (pretty cosmetic picture), but not Concrete Material (physical properties).

I know this is an old post but it solved my situation where I thought some materials disapeared, not knowing the differences between materials and appearances. Re-installed twice after reading some posts about it, cleaned cache to no avail. I would not have found the "show dowanlaodable materials" option, which by the way, saw the first time I opened Fusion, thought it was missing that option, happy camper here, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
