Revity Systems 2 - Piping sizes

[james.yount]

I am testing out Revit Systems 2 on a project and am currently using the trial version. I am trying to model the site utilities and eventually the building utilites and the pipe size in the pulldown menu only goes up to 12". For my site utilities I need to go up to at least 36". When I look at the file, C:\Program Files\Autodesk Revit Systems 2\Program\PipeSizes.xml, I see the pipes go up to 24".

Is there a setting that I am missing to enable these larger sizes?

Is there a way to add larger sizes?

You can just edit the XML file

"C:Program FilesAutodesk Revit Systems 2ProgramPipeSizes.xml"

Add the sizes that you need.

Fine the type of Pipe you are creating based on Material (Plastic, Copper, etc.) and you will see the node called Sizes <Sizes> and it will have a bunch of nodes under that called Size <Size> You just need to add a new one.

The numbers are in inches.

Add this under the last one.
<Size>36</Size>

Note: You can edit this in Notepad or an XML Editor - it doesn't matter. I would just try to avoid a program like Word when editing XML files.
